This is it. I used the list of email addresses of attendees to initialize the group under the assumption that if you gave your email address you were fair game for subscription. Any and all discussion related to this topic is welcome. The usual netiquette applies. Feel free to invite other persons who express an interest to join the group.
Any mail sent there is automatically resent to all other persons on the discussion list.
For those of you who did not attend the first organizational meeting held at the GAC meeting at Waterloo, we are now organizing to submit a proposal to the GAC executive for the formation of a new division, the GAC GIS Division. This has been approved in principle, and we have the go ahead from the executive to form a constitution. Peter Davenport and I are the Co-Chairmen of the Steering Committee, and I am the Program Coordinator for the proposed GIS session at the Victoria '95 GAC meeting. If any one has any thoughts about the setting up of the new division, or what they would like to see in the porgram for next year's meeting, please either contact Peter or me directly, or post to this group. It might be an idea to think about trying to help other persons who are interested in a GIS division onto the news group.
