[advocacy-discuss] OSUG map... great idea.. can we get community support for this?

[Philip Torchinsky]

I also feel this map is very useful; both existing OSUGs from my country 
are shown there and I'll encourage people interested in the 
participation to establish visible communities in their own cities 
sooner than later (actually, more than two cities can be shown in Russia) :)

Aaron, thank you for the placemark!
