    7 During the Second !GeoNetwork Workshop in April 2006, held in Rome - Italy, an Advisory Board (AB) was established. The AB meets on a yearly basis to discuss the requirements of the participating agencies and to define a work plan for the following year. The meeting is open to all members & interested parties of the !GeoNetwork opensource Community. Working group sessions are organized to gather project requirements and to come up with a work plan. The workshop will also provide technical sessions around the !GeoNetwork opensource software and where possible around related software.

    9 The day to day management of the project is left to the Project Steering Committee (PSC). The PSC will seek consensus within the developer and user community and is responsible for the implementation of the work plan.

    11 A goal set out by the AB is to make the community building process an inclusive, consensus based effort. At the Rome meeting, the AB agreed to have the project go through the incubation process of the OSGeo Foundation to establish it as a full OSGeo project.

Proposals are available for review for at least two days, and a single veto is sufficient to delay progress though ultimately a majority of members can pass a proposal.
