[Webcom] Re: Subject: [Website] About OSGeo Projects

Ally,
I suspect that you will find the most current project information about 
OSGeo Projects (and some other Geospatial Open Source Projects) is 
linked from the contents page at:

http://live.osgeo.org/en/overview/overview.html

These documents are updated every 6 months.

You will notice that these pages are being translated into a number of 
languages. Is translating into Taiwanese something that you would be 
interested to help promote?
