<div>Dear All,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>You will have seen Nathalie's e-mail announcement on this list of marineregions.org. This has obvious governance implications for the SeaVoX C19 vocabulary and for other established international governance such as the GEBCO SCUFN committee for undersea
feature names. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>There has been absolutely no communication beyond the public announcements from VLIZ to SeaVoX or its parent bodies and the future relationship is, to me at least, totally unclear. My preference would be to establish a collaborative governance with marineregions.org.
I await the common courtesy of an approach to SeaVoX from VLIZ to negotiate such a relationship.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Cheers, Roy.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Please note that I now work part-time from Tuesday to Thursday. E-mail response on other days is possible but not guaranteed!</div>
