For the record, I fixed this manually for my case in wordpress by creating a new location

@rouault I'd do the same for mundialis, how to get into WP?

Talk to @jj0hns0n to get access to word press, additional locations being added all the time.

I just added Null Island (which we can use for any organization that want to protect their location)

Still no solution that I see? Note that both in the OSGEO labs and the Local chapters Forms that people have been filling in, there was a location (lat/lon) field, so folks have been providing these and are assuming the correct location will show up in the end....
Aparat from that, on request of Helena Mitasova, I have created an interactive map for the osgeo labs pages using D3. I send her and the GetInteractive people my solution (check http://kartoweb.itc.nl/D3tests/GeoForAllMap/) , but heaven't heard from them, nor seen any link on the new web pages.

..and because of my comment above ("Forms [had] a location (lat/lon) field, so folks have been providing these and are assuming the correct location will show up in the end"), I strongly object to the label having been changed from "bug" to "enhancement". It is most certainly a bug!

I made a separate bug report for your map #115, it would be really helpful if you could attend one of these meetings and help steer the solution for representing location and how to embed maps.

@kobben can I ask if you mean the origional google form we used for data collection? At the time I was not sure if lat/lon would work, or if we needed a list of locations like local chapters.

I do not think we can assume that the correct location will show up at the end, I have started a discussion on the marketing email list where we can try once again to nail down this #76 requirement.

Sure Barend,

Pim is the graphics designer responsible for the Look and Feel of the new website and the branding. He works for Get Interactive (ie the vendor we have hired for this activity). Jeffrey Laust is the project manager for Get Interactive.

Both Pim and Jeffrey attend a weekly meeting with the OSGeo Marketing committee reps (other groups like GeoForAll have volunteered a member to serve on the marketing committee to coordinate, clarify and prioritize over the course of the year). In this case you have a clear grasp of the challenge facing us, and some direct experience with embedding maps.

I will send you a meeting invite, it contains a google hangout link and the time (wednesday 14:00 UTC - but daylight savings time may mess us up).

@kobben update from todays meeting, the locations for the data collection (google form) are being migrated into locations now; so we will not be asked to reenter the locations (whew)
