You aren't wrong, the major projects are all ending so you won't see quite as much activity as before though we've no intention of leaving this all cold turkey. >Can you shed some light on the near future of the module mantainership wise? We've confirmed funding for a couple of years for a couple of people to maintain the AuScope portal and associated stack - which includes Geoserver. I'm hopeful we can stretch "maintain" to mean, "perfect some parts and track changes in standards". I'm also helpful the interest and code base will continue to grow and might eventually not have sole reliance (and we seem to be heading that way). Ben will be working on another project with me but we'll still be part of the same group working closely together, albeit somewhat smaller and spread out over projects. I've also little doubt many of the team will want to continue to contribute in their "spare" time regardless of what projects they are working on. Regards, Rob PS since I don't haunt this list as a contributor very often, as a reminder, I'm Ben's boss (and Niel's, and Rini's....) in CSIRO and responsible for the projects that allow us to contribute to Geoserver.
