[OSGeo-Discuss] pgRouting v2.4.0

[Vicky Vergara]

Hello all,

Finally the pgRouting release 2.4.0 is ready for packaging
https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/releases/tag/v2.4.0


The pgRouting team thanks all the tests done for this release by the
community, and I thank in advance all the people that make pgRouting
available in the different operating systems.

I must say that in order of not adding more requisites on the cmake, the
documentation that its generated with the:  make doc has the "old" looks.

I am leaving the documentation site with the new "look" because of the the
navigation bar:
- Easier to Navigate
- Easier to see flaws in the structure of the documentation
  - I'll be working on improving the documentation

Tomorrow I will be preparing develop branch to be for 2.5.0-dev

Changes for 2.4.0

[OSGeo-Discuss] GeoForAll at FOSS4G 2017 - abstracts deadline March 21

[Helena Mitasova]

Dear geoforall community,

As you probably know the deadline for submitting abstracts to the Global FOSS4G 
2017, Boston
 is tomorrow March 21 ! 

http://2017.foss4g.org/call-for-presentations/ 


I am planning to submit an abstract on "State of GeoForAll in 2017" but 
please let me know if you have already submitted an abstract on GeoForAll in 
general or some specific 
initiative so that we can coordinate.

I have updated the wiki set up by Charlie - please add your workshop or 
abstract info
so that we can work with the LOC to have GeoForAll represented in an effective 
and visible way,
your association with geoforall may not be always visible in your submission.
Here is the wiki:

https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GeoForAll/FOSS4GBoston 


This is a great opportunity to get together, share our work and plan for the 
future, so I have also added
a section for meetings if you would like to discuss collaborations and 
initiatives such as 
Smart cities https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Opencitysmart, 
Citizen science 
https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Geocrowdsourcing_CitizenScience_FOSS4G, 
and Suchith or others can probably add many more.

Thank you, Helena

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [Aust-NZ] OSGeo breakfast at Digital Earth Symposium in Sydney, Australia

[Adam Steer]

Hiya folks

I’ll be there with my NCI hat on, checking out the landscape and learning 
stuff. And Thursday 6 April is my birthday :) Breakfast sounds like a good 
start!

Any Sydney locals on the list keen to propose a venue? if not I’m happy to 
consult my bro - who knows where to get a good breakfast (and lives in Sydney).

Cheers

Adam

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Wiki: InfrastructurePreferencesStatusQuo - call for update

[Jeff McKenna]

Actually Maxi and I did a recent thorough research into OSGeo project 
use of infrastructure, by each project, and it was published as a paper 
(or soon to be).  In the short term I know Maxi has submitted it as a 
talk for FOSS4G-Europe.  It's good to take a step back and review old 
processes.  Actually we hope that that was a start of a regular OSGeo 
project 'health checkup', which obviously is very needed.  For example, 
it was quite shocking how many current OSGeo projects are functioning 
without any regular Project Steering Committee meetings, or even a 
visible Project Steering Committee.  I am sure Maxi will be sharing 
those results at FOSS4G-E.

Hi,

I've gathered some data about the current use of OSGeo infrastructure
by OSGeo projects, versus use of external services:

I'd like to ask members of individual projects to have a look and
apply corrections and updates wherever necessary.

Thanks all in advance!

[OSGeo-Discuss] Is Geographic Information Science Proprietary?

[Suchith Anand]

Dear colleagues,

It has come to my attention that some proprietary GIS vendors are doing big 
marketing of thier proprietary products as the Science!  Science is not any 
specific GIS proprietary tools!

GeoForAll is a global community of scientists, academics and teachers  who are 
all working for  expanding Open Principles in Science and Education.  Our aim 
is to empower all academics and students worldwide. Openness is fundamental in 
harnessing the true potential of Geospatial Science and expanding digital 
economy opportunities for all . Open innovation is key in driving Digital 
Economy opportunities and we are determined to make sure that everyone benefits.

Why are Open Principles important in science and education ? Please see the 
links below

My presentation slides on this is at


https://www.slideshare.net/SuchithAnand/open-principles-in-geoeducation

For anyone opposing Open Principles in Education , i humbly request them to 
please consider supporting Open Principles in Education  as education and 
empowerment are key for getting rid of extreme poverty and help create digital 
economy opportunities also for billions of our economically poor brothers and 
sisters across our planet . Access to quality education opportunities is 
everyone's birthright. So do join us and let us all work together to enable 
open principles in education to help create a world that is more accessible, 
equitable and full of innovation and opportunities for everyone.


Best wishes,

Suchith
