DESCRIPTION:In January 2022\, OSGeo and  [OGC](https://www.ogc.org/) signed
  a new and [updated version of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)](http
 s://www.ogc.org/pressroom/pressreleases/4709) that aims to maximize the ac
 hievement of the mission and goals of the two organizations: promoting the
  use of Open Standards and Open source software within the geospatial deve
 loper community. Identifying open source technologies that could be used a
 s Reference Implementations for OGC Standards and validating OGC complianc
 e tests are examples of activities that can take place within the scope of
  the agreement.\n\nMore than one year after the agreement was signed and a
 lmost one year after it was introduced to the OSGeo community in a keynote
  at FOSS4G 2022\, this presentation will summarize all activities accompli
 shed and future plans\, including the establishment of the OSGeo Standards
  Committee within OSGeo and the organisation of the [3rd joint code sprint
 ](https://developer.ogc.org/sprints/20/)\, in Switzerland\, together with 
 the Apache Software Foundation.\n\nThe presentation will also reiterate th
 e benefits of the new agreement\, which allows OSGeo charter members to re
 present the priorities of OSGeo in the development of OGC Standards and su
 pporting documents and services.
