There seems to be an extra "and" in the Reason 3

"a growing body of and collaborative educational material"

Should be,

"a growing body of collaborative educational material"

Hi Suchith, all:

Patrick Hogan made some helpful edits to the text I have on my lab's site (thanks Patrick!), and I then edited it a little more toward some possible useful language for the 'Why universities should join' text. I'm sure there are other points to be made, but its a start. The text is attached.

Suchith, not sure who is leading the update to the GeoForAll page on this topic...

Cheers
Charlie

On twitter just now a community leader made a comment that our website (http://www.geoforall.org) doesn't clearly point out the benefits for a university.  We outline "How to Join" (http://www.geoforall.org/how_to_join/), but not really "Why to Join".

I thought this was a good point, and now that we all understand it more, it might be good to highlight this on the site.
