I am trying to follow up on this as I have been out on the road for
most of past week. Last I saw was Ari's suggestion to discuss this on
the list, and he had mostly no issues with Gary's request. (or, is
this being discussed on the wiki?)

Are we in a position to give Gary an answer on way or another?

What are the implications for OSGeo having its logo appear as
endorsing a course?

What vetting does a course need to go through before OSGeo's logo can be used?

Who will do the vetting?

Is this a case-by-case, ad hoc process, or does this need to be formalized?

We have many practicing academics on this list. Please give us your
informed opinion.
