[OSGeo-Edu] Restarting our conversations on developing one or more OS Geo webinars targeting local governments

[Markus Neteler]

Hi Charlie,

please post the URLs as well, for example, I could not find a trace of
OSGeo on http://www.iwr.usace.army.mil ... (nor find it with Google).
So, in general: if outreach, it should be (easily) accessible :)

thanks
Markus
