[Webcom] [OSGeo-Discuss] Barn raising: osgeo.org web site

[Ian Edwards]

Excellent - thanks Jeff.

All - please keep sending in requirements for the remake of the main

to the webcom mailing list, but please reply on discuss with any major
issues to this proposal overall, or with any alternative suggestions prior
to tomorrow's board meeting.
