Part of our GEO name includes Outreach.  During our F2F in Boston, I was asked to do some research on where we might be able to do more out reach.   Here are some Forums and Mailing lists we may want to approach or join to help better evangelize our message.  Maybe we should discuss this at our next teleconference.

Also, if any of you have any other suggestions, please send them to me and I will added them to the original list.
