Hi all. Thanks for this. I welcome this change, that I think will make OSGeo much more effective in promoting free and open source geospatial software. On the other hand, I still have problems with annual FOSS4G, which has a cost that scares away many top developers. IMHO (sorry to insist, I raised this point earlier) the meeting should be free for developers (committers to OSGeo projects), and more expensive for businessman. The net cash flow should be from business to GFOSS promotion, not drawing from our precious developers. All the best. - -- Paolo Cavallini - Faunalia www.faunalia.eu Full contact details at www.faunalia.eu/pc Nuovi corsi QGIS e PostGIS: http://www.faunalia.it/calendario -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAlE0TkgACgkQ/NedwLUzIr6ytgCdGA0mheL7qJhC5F3PKmFf9Vn4 /zYAn306cuTEsZnVofL5SWaizUau7X+P =v1zK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
