The question of the Belgian Local Chapter was discussed a couple of month ago, but the idea was abandoned because there was no need for that.
If someone want to relaunch the idea, I am quite volunteer to associate. We discussed about that after the informal meeting in Liege on the 13th May (drinking a beer /after/ the meeting). Ivo was there: maybe he will give his point of view on the subject. (if I have more time monday, i can also give mine... But i am on holiday until monday) Julien 2011/6/1 Chris Browet <c...@semperpax.com> > > >> > See >> > http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Foundation/Local_Chapters.
