Done, thanks. Glad to see things are moving.
I think before tackling the tech issues, we have a problem with
governance here: once we have a PSC, we can go on deciding the way to
go. Before that, we risk having discussions, duplications, and few
packages.
Glad to see we have a good response no

I think standalone binaries are really the only way to go for the
average Win user.
Thanks for your thoughts.

Paolo,
As you know I am in support of establishing a PSC for the OSGeo4W project,
and would be pleased to participate. I would encourage you to email
osgeo4w-dev and lets get this under way.

Hi Everyone,
I just found out that Today Saturday September 21, 2013 is Software Freedom Day
around the world.
More info at http://www.softwarefreedomday.org/
Nice timing with our closing day at FOSS4G. BTW, their events map even uses
OSM, OpenLayers, and Mapnik.

Dear all,
Despite I agree with you that providing the OSGeo softwares in a binary
distribution is a good idea, what do you think of providing something, which
may be IMO even better to the end users / developpers, let's call it a build
kit or a build environment already correctly setup for inte

Hi all.
OSGEO4W is a crucial piece of our infrastructure, and is one of the
main services we are giving for the spread of GFOSS.
I think it does not get the attention it deserves. The active
developer team is very small, many packages are obsolete, and
Some of us use OSGEO4W just because we have to, Windows is still, by far,
the most widely used OS in the world. I think it's a great idea to give it
some more attention, especially to the new experimental 64-bit version.
I would be glad to contribute in any manner possible, but I need to learn
