 Hmmm, how about . . .
 "Open Spatial Foundation"
Kinda has a ring to it, short acronym OSF, seems easy to remember, in acronym form anyway.

Why limit it to webmapping only? This would exclude things like PostGIS, =

My suggestion would be Open Source GIS Foundation or Open Source GIS =
 Software Foundation.

 Best regards,

"opengis.org" as Gary mentioned sounds very good to me. Web site name and foundation name the same. No extra acronym required.
