           Dear Maxi, 
             
 
             
             Great to hear that you’d like to co-chair
 UN committee.
               Please share your intention to lead UN
 committee through
               UN committee list. I think all will agree with
 you. 
             
 
             
             I also hope Maxi act as a liaison person to
 UN-GGIM or
               UNGIS team to handle MOU/letter exchange for
 the time
               being or permanently(?). According to Mr.
 Eom’s last
               email, his team has a plan to have  'Open
 Source
               Geospatial Solution WorkShop’ at Brindisi,
 Italia around
               this February or March. He wants to have some
 OSGeo board
               members or experts there to discuss future
 cooperation.
               So, we need to move quickly I think. 
             
 
             
             Please share your thought on this.

                       Dear Arnulf and All,
 
                         
 
                         First of all thanks Arnulf for your
 leading
                         this.
 
                         
 
                         I’ve contacted Mr. Eom around 10
 days ago about
                         this and I got several documents
 from Mr. Eom. 
                         I’ll forward all those to board
 private list and
                         Arnulf as well. Sorry for my late
 forwarding
                         this, I’ve just awakened from long
 holidays.
 
                         
 
                         There are 2 things we need to
 handle, I think.
 
                         
 
                         1. MOU or exchanging letter with
 UN
 
                         - This should be done by board
 level, I think
 
                         
 
                         2. Appoint new UN committee chair
 
                         - Maria showed her intention to lead
 UN
                         committee, if nobody volunteer this
 role
 
                         
 
                         Please share you idea on this.
 
                         
 
                         Kind regards,
