[OSGeo-Standards] What terms should go into an OSGeo Glossary?

[Cameron Shorter]

OGC Standards folks,

I forgot to CC you on this original email. Sorry.

Who looks after the list of OGC Acronyms?

We are interested to understand how you manage these acronyms, and 
whether it would make sense to align with a similar OSGeo initiative.

Cheers, Cameron
