I agree with Hamish that, most importantly, what UbuntuGIS needs is
developers. People that are able to package. Ideally people that are
interested to also help DebianGIS. DebianGIS also need packagers. So
having a PSC without developers/packagers doesn't make sense to me. I'm

Rather than taking decision, I think the PSC should make sure that
decisions are made.
Whatever we call them, I think the ideal PSC could learn a lot from
the osgeo live project. I think Cameron has done/is doing an excellent
job at managing that project, which in fact is quite similar to
ubuntugis

Soliciting the nominations/suggestions from this list is a good idea. I

large nominates people for it. At this point probably just need to pick
a size (perhaps 5 people). You usually want a few committers, in this

I think we should create the PSC before trying to elaborate on any
development roadmap. Then, maybe check for OSGeo incubation? Does anyone
have experience with that? What's the best way to proceed and how we
determine PSC members?

Ivan,
The most obvious way in which OSGeo could show support is by having UbuntuGIS
apply for incubation as an OSGeo project. Having a PSC is one step on the way
to being a full fledged OSGeo project.
There is also some possibility of finan

Dear Alan, at first thank You for Your work (and also for work of others in
