Thank you Paul, for your mail. I also think this is a great opportunity! If we want to make OSGeo a strong brand, maybe we should consider to use OSGeo.org (or even better OSGeo.eu) to use as publisher.
As an alternative, if the project has a foundation, we could use that as the publisher. As the catalog is quite a reference in Europe, we should consider to add an OSGeo project which links to all the published OSGeo projects, if this is possible. On this 'overview project' we probably can mention the OSGeo-live project. just my 2c Dirk On 03-09-15 20:01, Markus Neteler wrote: > On Thu, Sep 3, 2015 at 5:18 PM, Paul van Genuchten > <[email protected]> wrote: >> Hi list, i'm sending you this mail related to a question i was discussing, >> which might be relevant to other osgeo.org communities. > ... >> I checked how other OSGEO projects managed this in that catalog. deegree >> seems to be added by IDGis, QGIS by faunalia.
