[SAC] Fwd: [OSGeo-Discuss] New Semantic Mediawiki based OSGeo Member Map for the OSGeo Wiki

[Jeff McKenna]

Hi Christian,

Thanks for all of this work.

I am in the same boat as Alex.  Actually when I check those already 
listed in the "OSGeo Members" category, most users listed there are not 
actually displayed on the map currently (we are all in the same boat, so 
to speak).

Example: http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php?title=User:Jmckenna&redirect=no 
which redirects to http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Jeff_McKenna

Also, the template examples in the documentation 
(https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Member_Map_documentation) give 
incorrect syntax:

{{OSGeoMember
|Name=
|Address=
|Country=
|State=
|City=
|Coordinate=
|LocalChapter=
|Email=
|Website=
\}}

Should actually be:

{{OSGeo Member
|Name=
|Address=
|Country=
|State=
|City=
|Coordinate=
|LocalChapter=
|Email=
|Website=
}}

Thanks,

-jeff
