Hi,

Just wanted to add, for your information, that the budget this year is
substantially higher than in previous years. This is due to having
increased economic capacity and wanting to try the approach of getting
to projects and committees think of what can they do with their
budgets. For some projects this is the first year they request some
budget and that's wonderful.

In my opinion, we should encourage the use of OSGeo as an economic
backup, seed or push to make our software go further. So keep in mind
during the whole year all the things your projects and events are not
doing and how can OSGeo help you for 2020. Does your project not
organize specific codesprints because economic fear or incapacity? Is
it because you don't know where to start? We can help.

As usual, if anything comes up during the year, the budget can be
amended. But this means the board having to go through some
bureaucratic process both for transparency and for making sure we are
being fair with the rest of teams. And this micro-management makes the
whole process slow. So, please, PSC of all projects: try to compile
all requests before ending next year so when the Board comes to you
again after the elections, we can have a more complete budget.

Thanks you all for your collaboration, if we do everything that has
been budgeted, this is going to be an outstanding year for all of us!
Can't wait to see the results :)

María.

Gotten a couple folks asking for an update, the budget has indeed passed:

   - https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Budget_2019

The vast majority of budget request have been met as requested, with the
board scaling back some of its own activities, and combing events and code
sprints to make this happen.

For the details on how to work with your budget we have some draft being
assembled here  (TLDR:
OSGeo trusts you, work with your committee officer, officer contacts the
treasurer as needed).

If you have questions please reply to this email thread, or contact a board
member for clarification.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Free course about GIS applied to archaeology: Certification and links to the complete course

2019-02-14 Thread Mario Carrera


Hi all,

the certification of the course about Geographic Information Systems 
applied to archaeology that started some weeks ago is now available.


The course is free of charge, and the certification is optional.

To get this certification, a complete exercise must be completed, which 
includes some of the contents shown during the course, and there will be 
a minimum cost of € 25, necessary to cover the expenses related to the 
evaluation and certification. This certification will be open 
continuously, so that any user can get it at any moment when the modules 
are finished.


All the information about the course and the certification, including 
the practical exercise and the links to all the modules, is available at 
the gvSIG blog [1].


We hope that you enjoy this course.

Best regards,
  Mario
