Thanks for the clarification Nyall, as Andreas wrote we'll discuss it next
Tuesday at PSC and will get back to you short after.

Cheers Marco

Just a quick question, is the
 -is:draft
Filter an option at all? I guess it does not reduce the n/r by default but
could help?

[QGIS-Developer] Crowd-Funding update and first flagship member

[Marco Bernasocchi via QGIS-Developer]

Dear communitiy,
it is with great pleasure tha I can officially announce that we reached the
goal [1] of bringing the total member contributions up to €200k per year.
We hope this is only the beginning and the PSC is working hard to get more
large organisation into the sustaining members programm.
We know QGIS is a staple software in many [very] large organisations, we
"just" need to find our way to those.

A first step in that direction has been in the making since some weeks and
we're really pleased to announce our first flagship sustaining member: Felt
You can read all about what Felt does on the announcement blogpost [2]

I'd like to thank Felt and the over 30 other new sustaining members [3] for
their support and trust in QGIS.
I'd also like to take the opportunity to thank all previous and current
supporting members for your help in making QGIS such a successful project
and all community members for all the work and passion you put into QGIS.
It is such an honour to be the chair of such an amazing community.

The crowd-funding call is still open until end of March 2023, so if you
know someone or an institution that would like to join, please forward them
to the crowd-funding page [1]

Have a great day,
cheers

Re: [QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-psc] QGIS budget 2023 RFC

[Marco Bernasocchi via QGIS-Developer]

Dear all, thanks a lot for all the feedback,

As you might remember, the aim of the thread was indeed to discuss the
proposed budget, so I'll to try to address most of the mentioned points in
all emails without a specific order, trying to convey how things came to
this proposal and why the PSC believes it is the best way forward for
QGIS.org.

As a first reminder, all the discussions happened in public, and you can
read the minutes at https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/wiki#psc-meetings.

The proposal came out of a need to solve a pressing issue we've been
dragging along for some time now and "escalated" when Harrisou sent once
again an appeal for help, and nobody from the developer ml responded [1]:

I'll quote it as a reminder of the stark message showing how alone he felt
in his efforts:

>It's reassuring to discover that there are other channels; at

>least I can say to myself that the total silence to my call is not due to

>some disinterest. - Harrisou

Even to this, the only answers were from Tim suggesting to Harrisou to join
the next PSC to find solutions. The result of the PSC discussions was the
proposal to add a full-time paid documentation person to effectively help
Harrisou do what he has been trying to do for years alone. He is doing a
tremendous job in a part of the project where it is challenging to get
resources committed to it, and even when there were funds available, funded
documentation efforts thus far have barely scratched the surface of the
work that needs to be done. Even to the appeal above, the only answers were
from Tim suggesting to Harrisou to join the next PSC to find solutions.

Harrisou and Tim (Harrissou looking after docs, Tim looking after various
web servers & sites) stand, as volunteers, to amplify their efforts through
the paid helpers rather than have their efforts replaced by paid people.

Regarding the QGIS infrastructure, the fact is that despite trying to
onboard other people as volunteers, nobody is that interested in working on
these things. Tim mentioned personally having walked various people through
'onboarding' as a sysadmin, and nothing came of it. Richard and Jürgen (who
also help manage the infrastructure) may have different feelings, but Tim
feels he is (allow me a direct quote here with his permission) "getting
older and dumber," and we should have a plan in place to make sure the
infrastructure that keeps the project running is professionally managed
even when he will be too busy running his ever-growing farm :)

Jürgen also mentioned the same issue regarding the infrastructure behind
windows packaging in the past.

Regarding transparency of the decision proposed, I'd like to separate the
issue into three parts; 1) transparency regarding using Kartoza as a proxy,
2) transparency in hiring and finally and 3) transparency in the process of
deciding to try hiring ‘outside’ people to support our project.

Starting with the last point, I'd like to remind you all that we are indeed
discussing if we want to accept this proposal right here in this thread,
and finally, it will go to the voting members for decision-making. I really
need help seeing how the PSC is not being transparent here. I'm saddened to
see a perception of us trying to hide things when all is openly
discussed/logged in reality.

Regarding using Kartoza as a proxy company, it was indeed not selected
based on being an open call - much like we appoint trusted developers to do
bug fixing or other key efforts for the project. We are thankful to Kartoza
for taking over the burden of doing it. Quoting Tim again: "It is only a
hassle for us, and I only offered to do it through Kartoza to ‘make it
happen’ rather than some desire to do it through Kartoza".  Obviously, if
the community wishes to use another company/individuals here, it is
absolutely no problem to open the proxy up to another company. If anyone is
interested, please contact the PSC mailing list with a concrete proposal on
how to go forward.

Finally, on the transparency in hiring: this doesn't make any sense to me.
Hiring is a private process. People send their private CVs, often in
secret, from their current employers, to whom they are being "disloyal".
People applying should not have visibility of their competitors for the
job. In the case of Kartoza, they have a POPIA [2] (something like GDPR),
which governs what personal information they can share.

Tim has shared all of the documentation writer's CVs with Harrissou, and he
can pick whoever he thinks is best for the job. Tim also gave some
recommendations based on basic screening of GIS skills, technical writing
skills, whether they submitted a writing sample etc. For the infrastructure
developer position, they sent all the applicants a standard assignment as
they do as part of their normal recruitment process and had their
developers review and shortlist. I don't know how we could sensibly
(stressing that part since QGIS.org is not Google and the like...) do
anything differently. 

[QGIS-Developer] QGIS budget 2023 RFC

[Marco Bernasocchi via QGIS-Developer]

Hi all,
we prepared the QGIS budget for 2023 and would like to have feedback before
submitting it to the voting members for approval. You can directly leave
comments in the file [1].

Please let us have any Feedback until December 4th. On december 7th we'll
send the budget for vote.

Cheers
Marco

[QGIS-Developer] QField 2.0 is here

[Marco Bernasocchi via QGIS-Developer]

Dear QGIS community,
it feels like yesterday when in 2011 my inbox received the following text:
"Congratulations! Your proposal “QGIS Mobile” as submitted to “OSGeo – Open
Source Geospatial Foundation” has been accepted for Google Summer of Code
2011." [0]

Back then my idea was already pretty clear, create a standard version of
QGIS that would run on android devices and later on replace the UI with
something more mobile friendly.
QGIS mobile was quickly born and thanks to the help of many of you by the
end of the GSoC I had it running.
Years and commits went by, and out of the experiment QGIS mobile a new star
was born in 2015: QField [1]

What followed was pure pleasure, a fantastic community response and a huge
uptaking of the handy fieldwork app that now counts almost half a
million downloads and is active on roughly 150K devices monthly.

That is why, it is with a heartfelt thankyou that I'd like to announce the
official availability of QField 2.0

If you are interested in more details on the release, here you'll find all
information on our latest blogpost [2]

Cheers Marco

Re: [QGIS-Developer] [Qgis-psc] FOSS4G 2022: possible QGIS Dev meeting?

[Marco Bernasocchi via QGIS-Developer]

Hi Paolo, I added the page to the list on the main wiki.
Do you have a bit more details on where the venue is? You wrote University
of Firenze on [1] but there are multiple locations around the city :)

ciao
Marco
