Not at all. If projects want to become active in Location Tech they have the option. This will not take away anything from their involvement with OSGeo. > Will there be common projects to both foundations? I hope so. > If so, will there be 2 repositories? This will in part depend on the projects. OSGeo is happy with projects maintaing their code in any appropriate environment they like. Eclipse seems to be somewhat more restrictive. > Will funding raised by Eclipse LIWG reach projects on OSGeo? Yes, obviously, especially if the projects have already been through OSGeo incubation. > It seems a discussion started on this but ended up disussing an > embassador role... did anyone attend their 1st meeting after all? See above. > Just trying to figure this new reality out... It is still in formation, so if you have special needs or an idea or doubts, voice them. Peter Batty will have an open ear for you and direct contect into Location Tech. > Thanks, Duarte Cheers, Arnulf > > -- View this message in context: > http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/any-news-on-Eclipse-Location-Industry-Working-Group-tp5011998.html > > Sent from the OSGeo Discuss mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing > list [email protected] > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss > - -- http://arnulf.us Exploring Space, Time and Mind -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG/MacGPG2 v2.0.18 (Darwin) Comment: GPGTools - http://gpgtools.org Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlCOm0YACgkQXmFKW+BJ1b35wgCcCUNCI2MVSInLqylLb+c4EPC7 bqkAnjTqFjmmSLxOubAgEPOhtKojwF49 =ACsj -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
