Hello all
I'm cross-posting an announcement that has just been sent to the
[email protected] mailing list. If we want to participate, I think
that we need to prepare a list of tasks to offer. Updating the SIS web
site to new infrastructure seems an obvious candidate, but I don't know
if it would be an attractive task. I will try to think for other
proposal this week, but suggestions are welcome.
From Gobe Hobona (OGC):
The Apache Software Foundation (ASF), Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC),
and Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) are currently planning a
joint Virtual Code Sprint to be held during the last week of February 2021.
The code sprint will enable software developers to focus on free and
open source projects that implement open geospatial standards for a
period of three days. The code sprint will cover multiple ASF and OSGeo
projects, and OGC standards. This Sprint is open to all participants in
ASF, OSGeo and OGC, even if you are not active members or contributors
to the efforts of the organizers.
The exact date of the Code Sprint will be confirmed by January 21st,
2021. In the meantime, ASF projects and developers involved in ASF are
invited to express an interest in participating in the Code Sprint by
sending an e-mail to [email protected]
Since 1999, The Apache Software Foundation has been shepherding,
developing, and incubating Open Source innovations "The Apache Way". The
ASF's all-volunteer community comprising 813 individual Members and
8,000 Committers on six continents steward 200M+ lines of code, oversee
350+ Apache projects and their communities, and provide $20B+ worth of
software to the public at 100% no cost.
OGC is an international consortium of more than 500 businesses,
government agencies, research organizations, and universities driven to
make geospatial (location) information and services FAIR - Findable,
Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable.
OSGeo is a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to foster global
adoption of open geospatial technology by being an inclusive software
foundation devoted to an open philosophy and participatory community
driven development.

Gobe
