[OSGeo-Discuss] Let's start a new OSGeo education webinar initiative
Dear OSGeo colleagues, [This is a copy of a note I sent to the OSGeo education group yesterday. My hope is that some of the software teams will be willing to do an introduction webinar on their products.] I'd like to propose that we start a new OSGeo education webinar series. Thanks to Phil Davis and the GeoTech center [1] we now have webinar capabilities. An obvious first step would be to have a set of Introduction to OSGeo technologies webinars. These would be recorded so we can start to build a video educational repository. I've established a wiki page at [2] to allow potential presenters to sign up. With the new year coming soon, I'm hoping we can get at least 12 webinars identified for the 2012 year to be developed by people who are subject experts. Or, if you have any ideas on other potential topics, feel free to contact me. Thanks, Charlie Schweik OSGeo edu committee chair [1] http://www.geotechcenter.org/ [2] http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Edu_webinars ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[OSGeo-Discuss] Lists in order of support
We have a good collection of Open GIS Software, thanks to OSGeo. Do we have a comparison, of efficiency of their Lists and Discussion forums. I find GRASS, at the top of quick and clear replies, followed by PostGIS , Qgis. Do we have a mention any where about 'Which Open GIS is where, Say, on a scale of 1 to 10', when it comes to efficiency and time taken for replies. This might help in some introspection.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Lists in order of support
You are welcome to create your own comparison list; or add to some of the others already available. The foundation is more concerned with promoting and improving the projects; and not so much on judging them :-) The incubation process does cover couple basics (open source license, some kind of open development model, can the code be distributed etc...). -- Jody Garnett On Tuesday, 13 December 2011 at 12:47 PM, Ravi wrote: We have a good collection of Open GIS Software, thanks to OSGeo.
