    • one for "conferences" - responsible for tracking what shows are happening, and coordinating what (if any) presence OSGeo will have there
    • one for "library" - permanent archive of high-quality OSGeo-related content, e.g. slide sets about us, slides about our member projects, workshops, etc, etc, all to be used and recycled by members and the public (if library idea deemed worthy, mpg will humbly nominate himself for the "librarian" role)
    • one for "outreach" - chartered with responsibility of "getting the word out" to specific communities, corporate and otherwise
  • mpg would like to see a (possibly informal) charter for VisCom, as he (and others?) are a little confused about the roles of VisCom versus WebCom
