Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [OSGeo-Standards] Spare OGC membership slot

[Suchith Anand]

May I also request that  OSGeo representatives who take up these slots to 
please also take some time to share OSGeo events updates and information in the 
OGC maillists to help build wider collaborations/synergies. As part of  the 
OSGeo-OGC MoU , they can share key OSGeo events (FOSS4G conferences etc) to the 
OGC maillists etc. So please respond to this call for volunteers request if you 
are interested. Thanks.


Best wishes,


Suchith

I'm looping Scott's comments (from the OGC) into the general OGC discussion 
forum, as I think there are others who might be interested.

I'll add that you should plan to dedicate a lot of time if you intend to 
partake in OGC initiatives. The OGC tackles hard interoperability problems and 
you will likely need to think and discuss deeply with like minded people. It is 
hard work, but it can be very satisfying and rewarding to be working on the 
bleeding edge of technology (as many open source developers are doing already).

Warm regards, Cameron

1. Sign up as an Observer for the OGC Testbed-15 initiative to learn how they 
work.
2. Plan on submitting a bid in early 2020 to implement new offerings as part of 
OGC Testbed-16.
3. Selected bidders will become participants to receive cost-share funds to 
help offset the cost of developing testbed component implementations.
4. These participants will retain full control over the source code assets. All 
that must be delivered are interoperability demonstrations showing how the work 
helps advance the OGC standards baseline.

Under current testbed policies, OGC does not take possession of any of the 
developed source code. So in some sense, this is a roundabout way to get "paid" 
to develop open-source code. It's generally not sufficient funds to enable full 
cost recovery. But if the alternative is to receive no funding at all, this 
might present an attractive option.

 if you're interested in learning more. Full observer privileges are available 
to all OGC members (including the OSGeo slot).

Hi Jonathon,

Are you still interested in taking up an OSGeo membership slot within OGC.

It will give you a private membership that you will be able to use to 
participate within various OGC working groups and access member only OGC 
content.

If so, then I suggest that you use the membership slot to see how you can best 
contribute your skills to benefit both organisations.

I request that you provide updates to this list, at least yearly, but ideally 
when you come across items that you believe will be of interest to the OSGeo 
community.

You’ll find a wealth of resources on the OGC web site:

https://www.opengeospatial.org/

Kind regards,

Bruce

Hi everyone,

Do we have anyone on the Standards List who has an interest in filling our spare

I’m just after an expression of interest at this stage, to see if a selection 
process is required.

If you are interested, please indicate so by simply replying to this email and 
stating so by the 18th Feb GMT.

The link was of course outdated. I've just updated it.
The latest one is 1.5.1 from
https://github.com/Esri/file-geodatabase-api/

Not sure if that would solve your issues though.
