[Talk-ca] Community consultation re Windsor Hackforge OSMF Local Chapter Application

[Eugene Alvin Villar]

Hi everyone!

I'm Eugene, one of the members of the Board of the OSM Foundation. I would
just like to ask mappers and the local community from Ontario, especially
those based in the City of Windsor and Essex County. The OSMF received an
application from Windsor Hackforge (https://hackf.org/) to become an OSMF
Local Chapter. Please see the application documents here:
https://wiki.osmfoundation.org/wiki/Local_Chapters/Applications/Windsor-Essex_Ontario_Canada

My question is, would the local community feel comfortable with Windsor
Hackforge becoming a Local Chapter for the Windsor-Essex area? As stated in
the OSMF website, "Local Chapters are country-level or region-level
not-for-profit legal entities representing the area's OSM mappers and OSM
data when dealing with local government, business, and media." Does Windsor
Hackforge fit the bill?

Thanks!

Eugene Alvin Villar
