Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] PostGIS 2.3.0beta1 release
This is a very good development Regina. I hope we will have a new edition of the "PostGIS in Action" soon as well. For beginners like me, it is one thing to go through the "what's new" in the official documentation and toddle through the arcane language therein and another thing to read a book written in a more humane style especially with Regina's touch! Specifically, I would be interested to see how the Geography data type has been enhanced so far!

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] [Board] [OSGeo-Conf] Conference Committee F2F meeting
Venka, all, I agree that low income economies don't have the potential to make as much money as high income economies. Everything is cheaper: venue hire, food, tickets. However, both high and low income conferences face the same risks (as a percentage) and as such should factor to have the same surplus (as a percentage) which should be returned to OSGeo. I feel quite strongly that there will be significant (often unvoiced) decent from areas within the OSGeo community if OSGeo is seen to be favouring one community over another. (Even if the favoured community is very deserving). When I was a FOSS4G chair I was surprised at just how many different user groups had incredibly valid reasons for getting a free pass, and then felt very put out if they were not granted such a pass. The problem is, most people don't want to pay for someone else's free pass. On 27/08/2016 7:44 AM, Cameron Shorter wrote: One of the strengths of successful open source communities (actually most volunteer communities) is their long term sustainability, which is achieved by each small component within the community being self sustaining in its own right. Extending this principle to finances of conferences, I suggest that every conference should aim to be financially sustainable. It need not aim for a huge profit, but should aim to break even under conservative estimates (leading to a modest profit under typical scenarios). It is worth noting that small foss4g events can be run very cheaply, using a basic formula of a "Meetup Event" getting free space at a local pub, with participants buying their own beer/food.

"Rest of World years should target a minimum of a break with a lower expectation of the share of surplus being returned to OSGeo. A larger share of any surplus should be reinvested into local OSGeo activities." Regarding the note above, such special arrangement should apply only when FOSS4G is organized in/by communities of the Low or Lower-Middle Income Economies as defined by the World Bank and WHO [1]. Cost of living and PPP [2] is considerable different in Low or Lower-Middle Income Economies and thereby the conference fee could be considerably lower. FOSS4G-2015 in Seoul adopted a special pricing for participants for Low or Lower-Middle Income Economies, which could be adopted in future conferences. "Rest of the World" would surely not include high income countries listed in [1], I think.

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Geo4All - Empowering academics and educators globally - requesting colleagues to share Geo4All ideas at Geography Awareness Week
Hi Suchid, thank you for your first support, Also OGC, ICA etc. have difficulties to understand the magnitude of my invention: it's a simple idea but it opened more than 25 different applications, most of them have nothing to do with maps or software. The reason of this abundance is simple: the actual system has fundamental weak points www.volksnav.de/fundamental, that means, the emperor is naked. I'm sure, the number of applications will increase when students all over the world - other than today - will be motivated to be creative. The poster www.volksnav.de/evolution shows the actual "open" situation: the geoAwareness for locations, directions, distances and angles degenerated to left/right commands and left/right confusions. OSGeo could easily be the link to the new homo sapiens. According to my experience, in this special case "free and open" will have a complete other meaning as wanted against vendors: it will be understood that anyone can anytime define a "better" standard. A cartographer from the Nederland divides the horizon into 10 directions and call this more "natural" than mine because "we have 10 fingers". Do you agree with this argument? Are you the opinion that an orientation standard should be free to be violated? Let's compare my invention with the UN open GIS logo contest: why would UN pay for a logo? Why don't UN declare also the winner logo as free and open? Very simple: 1 a good and not a cost free logo is the priority 2 money is a proven motivation for creativity 3 intellectual work is respected and honored 4 misuse can be combated . So I take the liberty to express the actual situation with my own words: "Education and GeoAwareness are important but if the inventor tries to impede a chaos, then they aren't important" "We want to help the visually impaired but if the inventor tries to impede a chaos then we don't want to help them" Because of the magnitude of the invention, it's a mission impossible to define EXACTLY my aims. I've suggested to think about a start with a standardization of the circle "r100" www.volksnav.de/r100 but your free/open police department impedes any dialog about benefits for the population. r100 is only 0,005% of the invention, should also be a standard for TACTILE and imaginary maps www.volksnav.de/iphoneApps and would be my basic proposal for the Geographic Awareness Week. Let's propose it together or have I to do it alone? Henrique ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
[OSGeo-Discuss] [Election 2016] Board Nominations
Dear all, after a successful FOSS4G and northern hemisphere summer break, it's time to take the OSGeo Foundation Board Elections. The nominations for the OSGeo Board of Directors will start tomorrow [1]. Please take a minute to understand what the board actually does[2]. A director should plan to spend several hours a week on OSGeo business in order to do a good job. The current board members will know best. To nominate a candidate for the board please first confirm with the person that they would like to stand for election as a Board member. Then send an email to c...@osgeo.org CCing the candidate by 12:00 GMT on Tuesday 20.09.2016[3] consisting of: - name and e-mail - current country of residence - a paragraph describing why you think this person would make a good Board member. Remember that only Charter Members are eligible for a seat on the Board and for voting but that *anybody* can *nominate* a board member. Last year was asked, after public nomination, to write to the Discuss mailing list some kind of manifesto about their plans for their term. This is not mandatory at all but a good starting point for discussions and to let the community know what are your ideas about the Foundation. Thank you.
