[OSGeo-Discuss] Nextcloud.osgeo.org will be upgraded in the next 24 hrs

[Regina Obe]

I plan to upgrade https://nextcloud.osgeo.org to 18.0.3 later today.  Plans
detailed here - https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/2243 

I don't expect there to be more than 1 hr downtime during the process.

I will send out another notice just before I start the upgrade.

Email me if this poses a problem for you.

Thanks,
Regina

[OSGeo-Discuss] Google Season of Docs wrappup for 2019 and kickoff for 2020

[Cameron Shorter]

We have learned a lot from our involvement in Google's Season of Docs,
which I have written up and has been published here:
https://opensource.com/article/20/4/documentation
It is worth noting that Season of Docs [1] will be running again in 2020.
Based on OSGeo's performance in 2019, we are well placed to apply again to
get a tech writer.
I am not going to act as an OSGeo mentor this year (I will be focusing my
energies on TheGoodDocsProject [2]). So hopefully someone else will step
up. Wiki of ideas from last year at [3].

[OSGeo-Discuss] The map of Participatory Lithology, and a call for expressions of interest

[Andrea Giacomelli]

*[This is the adaptation of an e-mail I sent earlier to the Italian list,
so I don't know if it will qualify as a cross-posting for readers of
gfoss-it... anyway: apologies in this case]*



Hello, I hope you are well

On March 21 we (pibinko.org network  and Metalliferous
Hills Jug Band ) started
what we may qualify as a small resilience project.
This combines some very local aspects (helping families of a tiny Southern
Tuscan village to classify a series of domestic mineral collections), with
the experience we have since 2007 in working in international communities
to do things that some folks consider "beyond Jodorowski", and other
consider interesting and productive, with lots of nuances in between. From
the pibinko.org site you can get some hints about this context.

To learn about the Participatory Lithology project in a "linear" way you
can go for this page , or
if you want a less informal approach and you like music, you should start
from here

.

Once you have learned a bit more about the story, you can check out the
first version of the project map:

http://www.pibinko.org/litologia-partecipativa-la-mappa-dei-partecipanti-all8-4-20/

We are interested in finding people who might support Participatory
Lithology by helping to create a map which is a little more dynamic than
exporting images from QGIS.
This contribution to the project would be assimilated to a level 2b
sponsorship (see this page
 for
an explanation)...or it might drift to the category of "other forms of
entertainment" (see this other page
),
depending on the type of visualization that we may come up with.

Please write to  micalosap...@pibinko.org if you are interested.

Thank you for your attention, and best regards from Southern Tuscany
