[OSGeo-Discuss] Call for ideas on osgeo activities

Tue Apr 26 15:54:33 PDT 2016

Steven, Marc, you're comments are both practical, and much more 
realistic that what I think most on the board realise.
I feel the current OSGeo board would benefit greatly from having access 
to such experience, and they are possibly out of their depth at the 
moment on some of these issues.

Cheers, Cameron
