All, Markus was so kind as to update our membership pages so that finally we should all be able to understand how to become a member. This is an announcement to please check back and let us know whether this is actually true.
From http://www.osgeo.org/content/faq/getting_started.html = Getting Started at OSGeo = If you're new to OSGeo, here are a few things that you can do to come up to speed quickly with the organization and start collaborating with others. All are welcome to participate regardless of membership status. You do not need to be an OSGeo member to use email mailing lists, the wiki or to contribute to any projects but we do encourage your registration. = How to add Yourself to the Member List = To become an OSGeo member, register yourself on the Wiki. To do this, you will need a Wiki account, which you can get by clicking the 'log in' button on the upper right hand corner of the Wiki[1]. For more information about using a Wiki, see the Wiki Help. After your registration, let people know in your personal Wiki user page (your login name in the top right of the Wiki) what you're about, and what you're interested in. Please simply add the text [[Category: OSGeo Member]] to your page to become auto-registered on the member list page. Since you've read the FAQ[2], you know that everyone participating is a member, so adding yourself to the discuss email list is the first thing to do (which you probably already did if you are reading this :-). If something does not make sense to you or you have a idea how to improve please let this list know.
