I've just taken a look at this and noticed this line as one of the
evaluation criteria:
> Proposer’s age (20 if <= 40 years old; 0 if >40 years old): 20 (max)
When did explicit age discrimination (i.e. ageism) become acceptable?
It seems to run counter to the OSGeo Goal of:
"be a welcoming and inclusive worldwide organization at all levels;"
Not to mention the Code of Conduct:
"OSGeo welcomes and encourages participation by everyone" - as long as
you're young?
