[Marketing] shall we look for a new chair for the Marketing Committee?

[Jody Garnett]

Thanks so much, what timezone are you in? Perhaps we can set up an initial
"reboot" meeting :)
I would prefer a single word, so "outreach" works for me also...

Even with a name change I would still like to balance our concerns and
focus very much on what we offer to the public as a not-for-profit (the
"empire open everyone with open source geospatial" vision). It is super
hard for me personally not to get distracted by inviting folks to join our
organization (since as a project lead that is kind of what I want).
