Talk:Local Chapters
WE need to clarify the wording a bit more, re: "local chapter", "local interest group", etc.
Maybe:
- Local Chapter
- Group of users, interested people;
- same overall goal as OSGeo;
- acting on behalf of OSGeo;
- Acting within a limited, specified geographical (and/or language) outreach;
- Generating good PR, media coverage;
- ...
- Local Interest Group
- adapts the work of the comittees to local realities or
- acts on behalf of comittees
- Acts together to solve local issues that don't need OSGeo supervision
