Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] update sponsorship logos

2016-03-20 Thread Gert-Jan van der Weijden - Stichting OSGeo.nl

 

One of the two fonts Steven mention in his  2011 search for the fonts  (the 
Trebuchet) is part of the Microsoft (!) TrueType font pack for the web which, 
according the the EULA, can be reproduced and distributed freely [1].

The other one, the LucasFonts Sans Italic [2] is a piece of art by the pretty 
famous Dutch font designer Lucas de Groot (now living in Berlin)

According to my sources 50 EUR, for a packed to be used on 5 different PCs [3].

 

Perhaps we should ask Lucas to give a presentation on font design, use and 
copyright as the FOSS4G ;-)

Revising this email thread, the fonts used in the original logos do not quite

Reading in the SVG files it shows that these logos were generated by adobe svg 
export (sigh).

Thanks for the Link Cameron!

 

Too bad all the label are path elements rather than text elements. Does anyone

[OSGeo-Discuss] Draft European Open Science Agenda and Call for EoIs for the Selection of members for the High level Advisory Group "Open Science Policy Platform"

2016-03-20 Thread Suchith Anand



Colleagues,

With the objectives to enable more reliable science (by allowing data 
verification); more efficient science (by sharing resources); and more 
responsive science (by contributing to addressing societal challenges), and 
fostering research integrity are critical for Open Geospatial Science that "Geo 
for All" stands for . Hence we are extremely pleased to support the excellent 
developments in Open Science led by the European Commission.


In June 2015, the Commissioner for Research, Science and Innovation Carlos 
Moedas defined three strategic priorities: Open Innovation, Open Science and 
Openness to the World.

Open Science describes the on-going transitions in the way research is 
performed, researchers collaborate, knowledge is shared, and science is 
organised. It is enabled by digital technologies, and driven by:


  *   the enormous growth of data,
  *   the globalisation and enlargement of the scientific community to new 
actors (e.g. citizen science), and
  *   the need to address societal challenges.

The institutions involved in science are affected (research organisations, 
research councils, funding bodies), as is the way in which scientific results 
are disseminated and assessed. This is reflected in

  *   the rise of new scientific disciplines,
  *   innovative pathways in publishing (among them a substantial rise of open 
access journals),
  *   new scientific reputation systems, and
  *   changes in the way the quality and impact of research are evaluated.

In the short term, Open Science is expected to lead to more transparency, 
research integrity, openness, inclusiveness and networked collaboration. In the 
long term, it should increase the impact and quality of science, making science 
more efficient, reliable and responsive to the grand challenges of our times as 
well as foster co-creation and Open Innovation.

More details at https://ec.europa.eu/research/openscience/index.cfm

The Directorate-General for Research and Innovation intends to establish a 
Commission Expert Group to provide advice about the development and 
implementation of open science policy in Europe.
It is therefore calling for expressions of interest with a view to selecting 
members of the High-Level Advisory Group 'Open Science Policy Platform' (OSPP). 
The group will consist of 20-30 high-level representatives of the broad 
constituency of European (open) science stakeholders.


The mandate of the Open Science Policy Platform is to:

  *   advise the Commission on how to further develop and practically implement 
open science policy, in line with the priority of Commissioner Moedas to 
radically improve the quality and impact of European science;
  *   function as a dynamic, stakeholder-driven mechanism for bringing up and 
addressing issues of concern for the European science and research community 
and its representative organisations, following five broad lines for actions 
which are presented in the draft European Open Science Agenda [1]
  *   support policy formulation by helping to identify the issues to be 
addressed and providing recommendations on the policy actions required;
  *   support policy implementation, contributing to reviewing best practices, 
drawing policy guidelines and encouraging their active uptake by stakeholders;
  *   provide advice and recommendations on any cross-cutting issue affecting 
Open Science.


DG Research & Innovation is hereby calling for applications with the view of 
selecting stakeholders as members of the Open Science Policy Platform according 
to the criteria detailed in the Call for expression of interest.

More details at 
https://ec.europa.eu/research/openscience/index.cfm?pg=open-science-policy-platform

So i request you all to share this info. widely and invite our colleagues who 
are contributing to Open Science to be part of this and support the EC .

Best wishes,

Dr. Suchith Anand
