Please make sure MapServer team mebers are aware of open twitter
alternatives, to let people follow them using standard based agents.

One modern such alternative: https://mastodon.social/
  see https://mastodon.social/tags/gis for a federated tag search
  and https://mastodon.social/@Gargron for an example profile

NOTE: anyone can setup a node in the federation, and it is compatible
   with the somewhat older GNUSocial protocol.

Source code: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon

Thanks Sandro, I'll experiment and do as you say.

Cheers from FOSS4G-Paris.

[OSGeo-Discuss] osgeo beta-website and project details requested

2017-07-22 Thread Jody Garnett 
An update from the foss4ge code sprint Nicolas Roelandt and myself have
been working on the osgeo website.

But first here is a link (three days old) to the beta-website:
http://osgeo.getinteractive.nl

This shows the first couple pages as the wireframes and visual design come
together; and will become more complete as content is migrated from our
website; and new content is filled in from documents and forms:

Like this one for projects:
​
 Software Projects

​
And this one for service providers:
​
 Service Providers

​
Or the list of partners and friends the board has been working on:
​
 Partner Content and Logos

​
If you cannot stand google forms I understand - we will have the ability to
edit the beta-website when it is hooked up to our OSGeo LDAP service.

The beta-website is used to play test the website, trying out the user
experience of navigating, finding and understanding information. While
there are only a few pages now, check back each day and you can watch this
project finally starting to come together.
