Member Agreement

See Gregg's proposal at http://lists.idrc.ocad.ca/pipermail/accessforall/2012-March/000127.html.

Gregg will fix a few things in the draft agreement, and then resend to the mailing list.  Then post on our Wiki, and have members of this working group sign and send original by post.

Next steps:

  • Gregg will clean it up and move it to http://wiki.gpii.net.
  • Then separate discussion from the issues/statements list.  A separate page for each item's discussion and illustrations.

Discussion on Metadata
