[Osmf-talk] OSGeo Oceania Local Chapter application

[Rory McCann]

Well IMO ish, I suppose is for them to be non-overlapping. A LC is 
supposed to be OSMF's representative, and it might get confusing if you 
have 2+ official representative.

The local chapter agreement says “OSMF won't establish another LC in 
[area] without consulting you”. So it was envisioned that they might 
overlap.

Currently OSM-UK covers the UK, and OSM Ireland covers the island of 
Ireland. i.e. Northern Ireland is covered by OSM-UK & OSM Ireland.

I'm sure OSMF & OSGeo Oceania can amend the contract later, if we want 
to remove $COUNTRY/$REGION from OSGeo Oceania, and instead grant that to 
$OTHER_ORGANISATION.
