Why not ? OSGeo is a non-profit organization walking on the legs of its members. I find it perfectly acceptable to stimulate partecipation. > Although I perfectly understand (and often agree with) your motivation, > such attitude will make more harm than good. > It certainly won't help to justify self-hosted OSGeo infrastructure to > the Community. Of course self-hosted means more responsibility in maintainance (either in form of dedicated time or money). I've no intention to hide that. Note that the Gogs service and the associated Drone deploys have been setup by myself in my own time, as a volunteer. No OSGeo budget was used for that. Can it be sustainable in the long run ? It depends on how many more people will want to help keeping the service going. As I'd really like for that service to continue, I campaign for growing the volunteers base. I think this is perfectably acceptable. --strk; _______________________________________________ geos-devel mailing list geos-devel@lists.osgeo.org https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/geos-devel
