Hi everyone.
Please find this link with information in regards to OSGeo membership
differentiations.
https://www.osgeo.org/about/membership-rules/
I was referring to being a regular member, not necessarily a charter member.
A participant can still follow the OSGeo mailing list. The important
distinction is that a regular member will have self-registered on the
osgeo.org website.
We could simply latch on to this saying to be a member of OSGeo:UK someone
will have to be registered with OSGeo.org and be in the mailing list or
subscribe to the newsletter.
Best,
Dennis
