Hi all,

from May 23rd to 27th the first gvSIG Festival will be held. In this
case it doesn’t matter where you live or even what language you speak
since you will be able to attend (virtually) more than twenty webinars
in different languages.

There will be presentations in English, Spanish, French, Portuguese,
Turkish and Russian, and we will count with speakers and works developed
in Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Costa Rica, Spain, United States of
America, France, India, Italy, Kenya, Mexico, Paraguay, Russia,
Somaliland, Turkey y Uruguay.

They will speak about how the gvSIG technology can be applied in
different themes like mental health, civil protection, cooperation,
historic studies, roads management, acoustic analysis, hydrology,
tourism, urban analysis….

The webinar platform allows to connect to the webinars from any
operating system.

You can consult the complete program in: http://www.gvsig.com/festival ,
and the information about how to register at the webinars will be
available soon at the website.

In case you can't see some of the webinars, they will be published at
the gvSIG Youtube channel soon.

I hope that you enjoy it.

Best regards,
Mario

[OSGeo-Discuss] OSGeo-EU toward a new OSGeo scenario?

2016-05-03 Thread Massimiliano Cannata
Dear Dirk and all,
I came across the e...@list.osgeo.org which I didn't know the existence
before of your last message. The archive [1] is showing very low traffic (2
thread, one of 2015 and one of 2016) with few contributors to the
discussions (3 people).
In my opinion times are very immature for creating an OSGeo-EU; it seems to
me that the discussion just started.

Apart from visions and perspective which could be different, i'm concerned
about the creation of an European OSGeo chapter and maybe in the next
future of an Asian one.
To my point of View, this may be the start of a disruption process which
could lead to to the creation of  multiple regional foundations.

I have to say that I was already reluctant on the formation of North
American chapter for the same reason.

This structure is one option, but then I see the "international OSGeo" (now
OSGeo only) to be totally redesigned in the case.

Probably each continent should then elect one/two representatives for the
"international OSGeo" and each "continental chapter" will have their
members and their rules that scale down to "national local chapters" that
have their own rules and members and elects representatives for the
continental chapter.

Also each "continental" will have its annual conference and the
International could happen once every two years.

Said that, I have no recipe and while understanding the motivation behind
this disruption process I have some fear of splitting communities. This may
lead in the future to different incubation processes, visions strategies
etc...

If this is the selected "option" I which that the process of
de-localization could be run in a more democratic way - doocracy is good
but when important matters involves several people democracy is far way
better as it explicitly involve everyone, not only those who " tends to
favor the more vocal people, leaving the "general opinion" largely unknown."


So my question (with no prejudices) is, are we going toward and do we seek
for a different OSGeo scenario?


Maxi

Also another point:

We will extend the Early Bird possibility for AT speakers, but (as said 
before) not in general.


I have codes here, that let the system use the EB price, although it is 
officially the regular price. So, AT speakers should contact us for 
these codes.

We will release that soon.

Im sure researcher would appreciate a chance at booking early bird as

Now that the program for the annual conference free and open source 
software for geospatial (FOSS4G) has been published we can't think of a 
reason NOT to register as soon as possible.


By doing so before the 9th of May you keep 160 euro's in your pocket (by 
paying an attendance fee of 590 instead of 750 euro's). 160 euro's. That 
makes a lot of Bratwurst & Beer!
But even more important, you also give the organisation committee a good 
insight of who is joining us at the conference in August in Bonn, and 
thus you give us the opportunity to fine-tune the program and its side 
events to fulfil your expectations.


About 150 "early bird" participants already did so. Take them as a good 
example, and point your browser to http://2016.foss4g.org/home.html.


Not next week. Not tomorrow. Register. Now!

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [Incubator] Should OSGeo accept "benevolent dictator" projects into OSGeo?

2016-05-03 Thread Johan Van de Wauw
Hello everyone,

First of all, I'm a bit disappointed that this issue is only raised
now, when the final vote for graduating is taking place. For the
future I think it should be clearer for projects what rules have to be
obliged much earlier.

Just this week, in another conversation I mentioned that you need
rules for when things go bad, and not when things are going well
(which luckily is the case for Rasdaman). So I think we should focus
on what resolution we want when things "go bad".

It may be my knowledge of English, but I'm not sure how I should
understand: "Should such consent exceptionally not be reached then
Peter Baumann has a casting vote".

If it means that if the PSC reaches 50% - 50% or a lot of abstintent
voting, Peter can take the decision, then I think it is a logical rule
and I see no issues with it.

If it means that if a majority of the PSC votes for the proposal that
it can still be overruled by Peter Baumann (or the chair of the PSC),
then I'm against it. I do believe that would be an unlikely scenario
but at such a time I don't think we can still call it an OSGeo project
at that point.

Kind Regards,
Johan

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [Incubator] Should OSGeo accept "benevolent dictator" projects into OSGeo?

2016-05-03 Thread Peter Baumann
interesting discussion, with valuable thoughts!

True, micro management is not the case in rasdaman - on the contrary, we are
most happy about helping hands, and are constantly thinking about opportunities
for process improvements. Personally, I am so much overloaded that I enjoy
handing over tasks, and yes: with appropriate responsibility; in practice that
means that we openly discuss pros and cons with myself being "primus inter
pares" (first among equals). I have not received any complaint over the years
that anybody would not get heard appropriately. Regularly I just need to lean
back (metaphorically) and await the outcome of the discussion of the experienced
developers, and add my nodding to the group consensus.

We regularly try to involve the community in such design and implementation
discussions (and I am urging devers to do that), but feedback invariably was
minimal. Which I see as a sign of trust when looking at the download figures at
www.rasdaman.org.

It may be worth noting that we have installed mechanisms for openly commenting
and voting on patches; ever clicked on the Review URL in the Patch Manager?

Actually, it is more about deciding not by election, but by qualification.
Concepts and code of rasdaman are extraordinarily complex; large and experienced
companies like Oracle, Teradata, and ESRI have tried to copy rasdaman, and
failed. Therefore, it unfortunately takes patience for a newcomer to immerse to
a degree that allows making suggestions that are fully backed by the team. That
said, we do not attach maturity labels to coders ;-), rather the technical merit
of each individual contribution is weighted carefully.

Another constraint, of course, are project considerations- there is a contract
behind where ESA, the European Commission, or whoever-else expects fulfilment.

Bottom line, the atmosphere in rasdaman is highly cooperative and
consensus-based, I just reserve jumping in as a last resort. Someone has
questioned the term used in this discussion as not quite adequate; I like the
diplomacy aspect raised.

-Peter

On behalf of the PSC, I confirm we are ok with joining OSGeo as a
community project. Is there any step we need to take to complete
the move ?

Hi Cameron,
I've been thinking about this one for a while, allowing benevolent
dictatorships as graduated
OSGeo projects looks like a significant departure from what OSGeo has been
so far.

As such, I'm wondering if the decision should not be made by consulting
directly all charter members,
to check if today's OSGeo is in agreement with such a direction?
A list discussion on list is good to allow pros and cons to be discussed,
but tends to favor the more
vocal people, leaving the "general opinion" largely unknown.

Cheers
Andrea
