Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [OSGeo-UK] Contributor needed for Open Source Geo updates for GIS Professional magazine

2017-11-05 Thread Suchith Anand 
Thanks Mike. I will pass the info to Niall. I think it will be good to have 3 
contributors (each contributing 2 articles per year) , so your help greatly 
appreciated.

Please do mail me the  Stansted meeting photo when you get time. Even though it 
was a small initial meeting, I still remember the energy and determination of 
all present to work selflessly for a bigger cause. It is great to see the rapid 
growth of OSGeo UK  community . It is now one of the most vibrant OSGeo 
communities globally thanks to efforts by Jo, Ian and many others. This is just 
the start :-)

Best wishes,

Suchith

Hi all,

I have been contacted by Niall Conway (GIS Professional magazine)  to see  if 
there are any interested  contributor(s) who would like to share written 
updates on the latest developments in open source geo which will be of interest 
to the wider geospatial community?  They are looking  to include a section 
which is dedicated to opensource news and updates to ensure that the magazine 
content is as balanced as possible.

I think it is a great idea to have a balanced content coverage including also 
the developments in open source geo.  If anyone is interested to volunteer to 
share written updates including coverage of major events and conferences such 
as FOSS4G, software updates and partnerships within the broader geospatial 
field etc please contact Niall (Email - 
conwayni...@gmail.com )  . This role would 
particularly suit someone who enjoys writing on a range of new subjects and 
wishes to develop a profile in the industry.

Best wishes,

Suchith

PS: I remember Mike Saunt (Astun Technologies) used to write a column on open 
source geospatial developments for one of the GIS Industry publications. He 
published  the summary  from a first small meeting (less than 10 people 
including Tyler, Jo and me!) that OSGeo had in  the UK on the sidelines of 
another event around 10 years back!   But I could not find the article now . If 
anyone has pdf copy of  that article (or the url) could you please send me. 
Thanks.
