wow, the thing is getting bigger...
I18n, is a great idea but I still feel that a set of mailing list can do honestly the dirty job. I volunteer, hopefully I'll not be the only one, to moderate the first English mailing list.

Hi,

I would like to give my 2 cent's. OSGeo is an internationnal fundation, which means a lot of people from differents countries AND langages. However, all this website seems only speaking english, they are, may be, only here for example. It seems important to me to take care for I18n and localization.

Which means : link to local website which can propose job offers/resume, or an interface with several langages as OSGeo did for its own website.


Local chapters can both provide and consume a geoRSS feed?  Not sure how
you'd go about charging advertisers in that sort of scenario, but just a
thought.

Thanks,

Y

Regards,
Tim Bowden

Something like this, at least at the moment, is going to be relatively low
traffic. I search the GJC periodically for Open Source related positions
and they do show up but not that often. That says to me that partnering
with existing sites would be more efficient and would result in broader
access.

For the GJC one idea might be to update the job schema to allow posters to
flag postings that have requirements for Open Source skills. Then I could
create RSS or GeoRSS feeds for just those types of positions. There has
also been talk of setting up a "contracts" section were shorter term
contact positions.

Nice.. maps and RSS - great improvements since I last used it.  I'd
much rather go with something like this, since neither mailing lists
or customising our web site tools could match its function or its
history.

If there was a way to search for postings that were optionally marked
as "open source" or even "OSGeo Projects" friendly - that would meet
my needs.  Also, if we were able to ingest the RSS feed (specifically
for open source ones) - that we could possibly display the last
couple jobs in a component on the OSGeo web site.

I'd like to hear Steve Lime's opinion on the job board topic since he
runs GJC!

Tyler
