Thx Suchith, However I struggle to see the opportunities for SME’s in particular. Especially, since these make up for the large part of the present OSGeo sponsors. I think the argument to join the initiative needs to be SMART. Otherwise it is a plea in a virtual ocean of requests upon open source businesses. Apologies, but I can not bolster the argument for joining. Perhaps others on the list can help you.
