I agree that in some cases it may be better but with where we are now we
simply don't have enough resources to do this, in volunteers, funding and
time.

What there is now is, in my opinion ok for now. Once we get more people
involved we can reevaluate the situation. I'm also thinking about
submitting to become a local chapter of the OSMF. Maybe that will already
meet some of your expectations:

If everyone agrees, anyone willing to take this on? (With my help!)

Met vriendelijke groeten,
Best regards,
