Should OSGeo make a statement about war?

- Discussion about how we can update our mission statement in the future
- Free and Open Source Software licenses by nature do not impose any restriction on how the software is used (and we know maps and related software is used during wars). The intent of the community is the software to be used for good purposes.
GeoIgnite 2022 request
- There was not enough time for the board to react, it was on 2 weeks notice.
- Such requests should be forwarded to discuss mailing list so the community knows about events.
- Board should be involved for specific requests (like sponsorship of an event etc.)
OpenForce 2022 request
- We should point to discuss mailing list so our community knows about this.
- The board cannot commit time of projects and volunteers directly.
GWF 2022 request
- We will follow up on board mailing list, not enough time to discuss today.
Actions
