Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] projects mailing list
Well, Jody, my point is, we should ask project contact points, to be reachable on some place, in case, we have something to share with them. Not sure, if board list is the right place - 90% of the mails are from projects point of view offtopic, but if all contact points are already here are following, I'm fine with that.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Status of discussion regarding FOSS4G collaboration with LocationTech and POCs
Hi all, Last month there has been a lot of discussion on the subject whether or not to collaborate with LocationTech in organizing the FOSS4G event (and if so, under what conditions, and whats the goals of FOSS4G could and should be) As the discussion spanned over at least 3 newsgroups it was not an easy one to follow. (unless you're subscribed to all OSgeo-newsgroups, which I'm not) The discussion seems to be over. However 2 monuments of this discussion remain 1. A wiki page at http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Conference_Options_2014 (assembled by Cameron Shorter) 2. A google doc based survey (by Jacky Cepicky) Can someone explain to me (and others) what a) the current status of the discussion is b) where to find this status ;-) c) what the road map for this discussion is. I guess the deadline is february 2015, when the Request For Proposal for 2016 is due ;-) Greetings, Gert-Jan ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Status of discussion regarding FOSS4G collaboration with LocationTech and POCs
Hi Gert-Jan,
A lot of good topics have been brought up in the last few weeks, and a
lot of discussions have occurred, as you mentioned.
I feel the whole community recently 'took a breath' about all this.
Which of course was needed.
I wish I have all the answers for you, but I don't; to be honest, we are
all working together as a community through this. Take a glace at the
topics for the next Board meeting[1], and you can see there is lots on
our ('our' being everyone's) plate, so to speak. (you'll notice that I
had already had the 2016 topic on the agenda today, before you hinted at
this publicly)
I know for myself, on this coming Friday, Andrew Ross (LocationTech) and
I will meet for an hour to talk, which we both agree is a great thing
(as Jachym often tells me, talking is really good). And I realize that
this has nothing to do with me, but as Jachym mentioned, has everything
to do with what the community wants, what the OSGeo Charter Members
want, where the community wants to go with FOSS4G. Andrew and I will
talk, but no decisions will be made without the community's support of
course. Jachym's idea for a community survey is wonderful in this
regard, in my opinion.
I'm sorry for all the confusion lately, but as a few people pointed out
to me, these are all good things, good issues, and can really be called
'growing pains' (sometimes as we grow there are difficult things we may
face, and we will grow stronger as a result). I should note here that I
am not implying that LocationTech is difficult, opposite in fact, Andrew
has been very accommodating. The difficult thing is coming together as
a community and helping guide the foundation along the path, and making
sure everyone's needs are met. That LocationTech is here is a good
thing. That is for sure.
Our community will grow stronger from all this.
Sorry for the clichés. But I really feel this.
Yours,
-jeff

A google doc based survey (by Jacky Cepicky) Can someone explain to me (and others) what a) the current status of the discussion is I think there are two discussions. A discussion of conference options (so we do not stress out our volunteers around the globe). Looks like research is being gathered, and there are lots of options to consider. I kind of expect that discussion to boil down to facts, figures, risk and take place on the conference committee mailing list? The second discussion, as Jachym noted, is waiting of survey results. I expect that to take place on osgeo discuss - when their are some results to discuss. b) where to find this status ;-) Wiki (and conference committee?) for the first one. Survey results (when available). c) what the road map for this discussion is. I guess the deadline is february 2015, when the Request For Proposal for 2016 is due ;-) I think only the first discussion has a deadline. Second one should be ongoing :) -- Jody ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
