On vision of GGOS: Several proposals exist and we need to come up with a
short and concise version. If we want to "sell" GGOS to the other members in
GEOSS we need to start clear and simple. Why was not geodesy included from
the very beginning of GEO?

On TOR: As above, we are trying to include all and everything and I don't
thing we are sending a clear message.

On GGOS contribution to GEOSS: Ref. my part of a position paper.

On internal integration process of GGOS: My strategy would be to build on
the strength of the existing services and base further development on what
we learn from participation with other GEOSS member in new integrated
solutions. The success of GGOS will very much depend on how we succeed in
the cooperation with the other GEOSS members.

Looking forward to meeting you all.

Best regards

Bjorn
