Subgroup Closing Regarding to EOGEO Workshop

No news and nothing has happened to change any status since WGISS-23

Allan Doyle have taken a full-time position as Director of Technology at the MIT Museum – everyone are welcome to stop by the MIT Museum

He think that WGISS will have to re-evaluate the current approach to the EOGEO Workshop

The FOSS4G series of conferences The idea of a CEOS workshop or conference

Allan thinks that the EOGEO Workshop series could be brought back to life but it would require much dedication and more outreach from WGISS

Everyone is asked to think about above issues especial WGISS Leaders

Version 1.0 of the CEOS Interoperability Handbook has been provided by Kopp Paul

In order to issue this version some urgent works arisen from Kopp Paul

the comment about metadata harvesting - especial contribution from IDN is needed

the comment about Grid technologies - especial contribution from GRID TT IDN is needed

More important improvement will result from WGISS English-speaking Readers – Thanks volunteer: Wyn Cudlip
