I would like to bump the priority of this so the mailing list is available
in time for the foss4gna event.

We have several SAC members who handle the list creation. It's not hard
but there are a couple of steps to get it right. The original request
fails to mention specifically what address is being requested, please
specify.

Can we create a mailing list for osgeo-us

That seems to be in keeping with other osgeo local chapter mailing lists.

Comment (by jsanz):

Hi all,

We haven't been very strict on this, but in regard of local chapters lists
names we usually just use the country name, as with UK, Belgium, Brasil,
Sri Lanka, Portugal, Poland, etc. We have a few naming examples using
"osgeo" prefix though: Japan, China and Russia.

I'm asking for confirmation because renaming afterwards a list is a bit
painful so I'd rather settle this now :slight_smile:

Also, I would like to confirm you prefer the ISO3166-1 alpha2 over alpha3
code, so US better than USA.

We would be happy to follow SAC policy, the initial request did not
specify a mailing list name. What name are you suggesting? "usa" ?

Comment (by jsanz):

Yes, sorry for not being explicit, I'm suggesting as preferred option:
`usa [at] lists.osgeo.org`

But again, `us [at] lists.osgeo.org` would also be fine, since both are
standard acronyms.

Comment (by jive):

This is really a case of the parties being involved being to busy to track
the activity, they simply want a mailing list in time for the conference.
