'''Re:''' Ideas..<br />
 
LOCAL GROUPS instead of 'regional like minded'. 3 types: <br />
 
* [[http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Catala]]LANGUAGES. <br />
 
* ORGANIZATIONS/BRANCHES/LOCAL VOLUNTEERS instead of/or 'LOCAL CHAPTERS' for the geographic or/and political/administrative divisions which can share continent.osgeo.org as an extra addon or maybe this to be first.
 
[[http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Interest_Groups]]'Interest groups' for unclasifieds. Actually they look to ocupy the place for the 'Languages' divisions(although should be official after some commits from the group) and the Local chapters actual proposals seem to confirm that lang.osgeo.org is a better entry and paralel point for subdivisions..
