[FOSS4G-Oceania] Proposal: Set up email lists for FOSS4G Oceania

[Cameron Shorter]

Hi OSGeo Organising Committee,

The FOSS4G-Oceania email list has been set up for us. You should have 
all just received an email inviting you to join.

Thanks to Jorge Sanz for setting it up for us.

You can send emails to: foss4g-oceania at lists.osgeo.org

Cheers, Cameron
