Andrea and the Geoserver PSC, I think you've written very diplomatic and pragmatic solution to address a tough problem. As I've moved away from my full-time employment in support of a live geoserver instance, I've found that I'm definitely not able to keep up with the weekly meetings or with the GSIP process in the detail that's needed to serve on the PSC.
Geoserver needs good leadership to get great GSIPs through the process and into the code! Unfortunately, that's just not me right now, so I think it would be wise for me to step down from the geoserver PSC at this point. I'll still be around, though! But I think I'll be switching to digest delivery, you chatty monkeys. Oh, and by the way, I think that the GSIP and the proposal voting process that's been worked out in geoserver (and to some extent geotools) is one of the best technical project management processes that I've ever worked with. Kudos to everyone both for evolving/creating it, and also for sticking to it with the rigor and the success that you have. Keep kicking ass everyone! --saul Andrea Aime wrote: > Hi, > I was wondering if the time is coming for a PSC membership update. > Of the 7 PSC members two have been missing lately, making it harder > to vote on GSIP.
