[OSM-talk] Local Chapters Meeting Minutes WAS Re: Status of the Local Chapter working group

[Nick Black]

John,
I said:

 so if you can't make it but would like to, please add your name to the wiki
so we can have a second call at a better time.

No-one is trying to exclude you - especially not the people who are trying
set up local groups and make OSM and the OSM-F more inclusive :-)  If there
are people who want to take the call at a Australia/Asia/New Zealand
friendly time, I've said that I'll go out of my way to make it and I'm sure
some of the other Local Chapters volunteers will as well.

Please add your details to the wiki page, suggest some friendly times and
we'll set up a call.  Alternatively, organize the call yourself at any time
you want and give you feedback to the Local Chapters group
local at osmfoundation.org.
