just fill in the "Email" field and, i you didn't explicitly
specify a "Photo" field, the "Email" field will be used to retrive
an Avatar using the "Libravatar" protocol, which implies:

  - Ask the DNS database if your mail domain has an associated
avatar service, and use that if so (it is the case for me)

  - Failing the above, ask libravatar.org for the avatar associated
to your email fingerprint (you can upload a picture there:
https://www.libravatar.org/)

  - If you hadn't uploaded a picture on libravatar.org, it will
fallback to gravatar (some of you may know gravatar from
elsewhere)

NOTE: the same process above is the one used to display avatars
for Gogs users here: https://git.osgeo.org/gogs/explore/users/

The idea of "libre avatar" is that you can be in control of
serving your own avatar.

[OSGeo-Discuss] Add your avatar to wiki pages

2017-09-21 Thread Jeff McKenna

Hi everyone!

Have some geek fun and magically add your avatar (from 
Gravatar/Libravatar services) to your OSGeo wiki pages.  The wiki syntax 
is:


   

See an example at the top of: https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Jeff_McKenna

Read about the implementation at: https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/1688

Have fun!
