Further to this thread, I'd like to add one more Lisasoft developer, Roald de Witt, to extend Mapbuilder in our CGDI project (under my guidance).
To date, our code is in https://svn.codehaus.org/mapbuilder/sandbox/lisasoft/cgdiip/mapbuilder Like our other Lisasoft developers, Roald is a competent software developer. Could you please vote to give Roald commit access to the mapbuilder repository: +1 Cameron Shorter wrote: > mapbuilder-developers, > Lisasoft has won some work to extend Mapbuilder to support a Canadian > Geographic Data Infrastructure Pilot project, and to add KML support > as part of the OGC's OWS5 testbed. > > I have 3 developers from Lisasoft working on this under my technical > guidance: > Eric Lam, > Martin Vivian, > Jim Groffen. > > What I would like to do is give these developers access to the > Mapbuilder sandbox directory to do their development, eventually > merging back to the trunk when the code is reviewed and stable. > > If we were to give these developers access to the mapbuilder > repository immediately, it would break with usual convention of > getting a developer to submit patches first, then being invited to > contribute. > However, I think that we starting to see new work processes develop as > people are getting commercial contracts to extend Mapbuilder.
