Website name for the education and curriculum committee
I, Puneet Kishor, proposed ecogs.osgeo.org education curriculum open geo spatial (ecogs).
Ari Jolma suggested university.osgeo.org. I like Ari's suggestion better than my own. It has the advantage of being unambiguous, but, in Ari's words, might be a bit bold. My one lingering concern is that the academia might see our attempt at education as a parallel, competing, non-vetted effort.
Tyler Mitchell proposes keeping it short and sweet but meaningful and memorable: edu.osgeo.org
