Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] seeking guidance for getting started
Hi Aaditya, There are many projects under the umbrella of OSGeo. I suggest that you start by having a look at the projects and see which one interests you personally. If you are starting fresh, it is often a good idea to select a project with a strong community behind it, and which has a track record for helping users (check the email list archives for the project to see if the community is responsive). List of OSGeo projects are listed here: http://www.osgeo.org/ More information about the projects is here: http://live.osgeo.org/en/overview/overview.html You can get an indication of the activity of projects here: http://live.osgeo.org/en/metrics.html On 5/01/2016 10:11 pm, Aaditya Thakkar wrote: Hi, I am Aaditya Thakkar.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [OSGeo-Conf] Overview of all current FOSS4G conferences
Dear Cameron, Yeah, as you note, sadly blip.tv changed their business model and even though FOSSLC was paying for hosting, they simply stopped offering the service altogether, and the videos went off-line. This was actually years ago and very few people noticed. I went back to a backup archive to restore some particularly noteworthy & timeless videos that people requested and upload them to YouTube. I don't want to promise to do others as candidly the same effort applied elsewhere is much more benefit. Peter's group has been in touch with me regarding FOSS4G videos I have recorded as well as other conferences I have recorded such as BSDCan, PGCon, EclipseCon, and others. It looks very likely that moving forward, at least for the ones I'm involved with in some way, they'll be both in YouTube & the TIB archive which is great.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [OSGeo-Conf] Overview of all current FOSS4G conferences
Dear Cameron, dear Ross, all, it would be great if videos from the 2009 conference could become available again as a citable information source for the OSGeo community and society. My colleagues from TIB (German National Library of Science and Technology) can assist to make them permanently available in the TIB video portal (http://av.tib.eu) free of charge, enabling citation by Digital Object Indentifiers (DOI). TIB can provide advice on the licensing options (and pitfalls). It would be great if the videos could be made available under a CC Attribution - ShareAlike 3.0 licence, if possible. best, Peter > Gesendet: Dienstag, 05.
