Joint Activities
MOU should cover commitment to any join activities:

Review or recurring commitment
- This MOU will be reviewed biennially by both parties at which time revisions may be made and the agreement renewed.
Relationship should support not only use but participation
Promoting use of open source is not enough, OSGeo wishes to also promote open source participation:
- Contribute to geospatial open source projects
- Direct participation in the development and documentation of OSGeo projects
- Positive and productive participation in project email list and communication channels
- Use of the project issue tracker and public support channels
- Establish open source contribution policy explicit policies for shared intellectual property (as an example several of OSGeo projects require organizations sign a contributor license agreement on behalf of their researchers.)
