Jody, Not sure how to interpret your guidance. We’ve had our sleeves rolled up and been pitching in without stop for as long as open source virtual globes have existed. And I think ESA-NASA WorldWind is a bit beyond incubation, we are more of a breeder farm for geospatial apps. I am very sure

Hi All, I think we are talking about several different issues here. Let me try to summarize. 1) JeffM is suggesting that we should *not* ask Service Providers what size they are in terms of number of employees to avoid 'alienating' them. I'm not sure I see how any would be alienated, but I dont

Hi Jody, By alienating the smaller OSGeo companies in our new website, I don't see a benefit to OSGeo at all. Let us please all sizes of OSGeo companies, small and big. Yes this is tricky, for sure, even your initial message to Jachym shows a lot of what it could be like, if OSGeo suddenly

Jachym, to clarify: any organization should be able to advertise their services for an OSGeo project, whether they are a non-profit or a research entity or a private company etc. That is how my proposal avoids separating OSGeo organizations by size. -jeff On 2017-08-21 6:17 PM, Jachym

Hi Jachym, Yes I agree, it is a slippery slope that once we/OSGeo decide that size is an important part of our organization (as you know, many other organizations separate their membership by size), it opens up so many other challenges. For that reason, I spoke up here to suggest that we
