Hi Cameron,


Thank you for raising this important point on the need for coordinated 
collaboration with periodic release cycles, development guidelines and 
templates, and quality control etc for educational materials for Data Science 
training needs.  I will bring this up for discussions and work to find a 
solution. I dont have the answer now on which is the best route to secure some 
funding for  dedicated saff time for this but i am sure, we will find some 
ideas from our communities.


I am also involved with  International Council for Science (ICSU) 's Committee 
on Data for Science and Technology (CODATA) . I am part of the Task Group on 
Building Foundational Training in Research Data Science (with RDA) [1]  where 
also this coordinated collaboration is key . I think this is definitely of 
interest to RDA, CODATA and other like minded communities working for Openness. 
I am ccing and  introducing  Dr. Simon Hodson (Executive Director of CODATA  ) 
into these discussions as it is important we plan joint efforts.

Simon - If you are planning to come to RDA  Barcelona meetings , please attend 
our meetings. If not, i am happy to arrange a telemeeting at your convinient 
time to discuss details. Thanks.

Best wishes,

Suchith

Hi Suchith,

I won't be able to attend this meeting, but have suggestions for the item: 
"Ideas for Education programs for Geospatial Data Science".


I believe that the educational initiatives would benefit from coordinated 
collaboration, processes similar to those used in software development, with 
periodic release cycles, development guidelines and templates, and quality 
control etc.

Most on this list would have seen me suggest that training initiatives could 
build upon OSGeo-Live processes [1], so I won't go into detail here.

The key element to determine is whether there is a sponsor willing to step up 
with sponsorship of a paid resource to make this happen. (I believe it extends 
the bandwidth of volunteer time).
