[Ica-osgeo-labs] Open Geoscience network at OSGeo

[Margherita Di Leo]

Dear OSGeo-Lab list members,

During the last FOSS4G-EU held in Como there has been a
European Geoscience Union (EGU) Interest Group BoF [1], that has lead to
the proposal to establish a new Open Geoscience Committee[2] within OSGeo.
The motivation behind this decision is the need to connect the growing
community of scientists promoting the open science concept. See also the
agenda that has been discussed [3]. The Committee was approved during the
last OSGeo board meeting.
I am pleased to invite you to subscribe to our mailing list at [4] and
looking forward to connecting with you and exchange ideas in the view of
building a network of scientists that share the interest in open
geoscience. Please spread the word among your colleagues! Feel free to post
about this initiative on mailing lists and social networks.

Thank you and best regards,
