Re: [ogpx] Definitions of terms to be used in my (our?) communication

Personally I would drop the use of "LAND" and  "ADJACENT REGIONS" but
I think these terms, as defined here are the right set based on the
lengthy conversations I started yesterday morning. Using these terms
it should now be rather trivial to restate the Charter in a way that
captures the essence of the effort's intent.
