 Chair: Jo Walsh
 Minutes: 
 IRC: #osgeo channel on irc.freenode.org
 Date: 2006-Jun-30 (at least in the Americas and Europe)
 Time: (fixed time)

What more is needed to get OSGeo's Geodata Repository running at Telascience
- User accounts to ask SAC for if needed
- Responsibilities for different data sets
What kind of portal is needed - is wiki enough?
Some type of browsing interface for the data neccesary:
- OpenLayers for Raster/Vector data? Easy to set up, might not be full featured enough for some people?
- Perhaps Ka-Map's tile.php as cached layer to feed both kamap and openlayers?
- Single-image screenshots for Raster data as overviews
- Vector dataset descriptions: What various attributes are/mean (better metadata)
- GeoRSS out to get updates, with bounding boxes -- need to get some way to display this data, does anything do GeoRSS rendering with bounding boxes right now?
Free Earth Foundation working on distributed open geodata services targeted at WorldWind - how can we help?
Feedback appreciated on metadata client
Please feel free to add items here
