I've not read the whole Wikipedia article, but the statement images
have to be transformed from the RGB color space to another color space
is indeed incorrect. Images that are 3-banded MAY be encoded with the
YCC transform, but this is not required; images with some other number
of bands do NOT

It is not clear to me what sort of study you would need to convince
you, as the ISO standard for encoding data into the JPEG-2000 file
format is by construction mathematically and numerically lossless
process. (Indeed, compression, i.e. throwing away bits so as to
further reduce storage
Interesting thread... A couple points from the sidelines:
My company sells a store-your-images-in-a-database product, for storing
JPEG 2000 and MrSID imagery; there are indeed people who see value in
using a DB to manage their raster assets.
Our product is not open source, but when using it

Perhaps we could mark out who on the planet is a Charter Member.
Charter members aren't special in any way with respect to blogging, so
I don't think it is a useful distinction to make.

Having been involved with this conference for several years, I find it
yields a nicely different set of offerings than the usual fare. This
year, the focus is very much on GIS infrastructures -- both

+1 to Frank (as usual...) -- the more overhead we put into this, the
less likely it will be sustainable.
Pick a mailing list -- either Discuss or a new one -- and I think we've
already got at least two volunteer moderators.

A colleague asks: are there any good GIS-related podcasts (open source
or not) out there?
Suggestions?

I find two problems with Shapefiles -- one, that it is not in public
domain (I am not even sure of what licensing there is on it), and
while ESRI is not likely to pull a Unisys on us, it just is
philosophically better to free if possible.
I don't see this as an issue at all -- legally
Dear OSGeo community:
Our friends at GeoConnexions are running a special issue in Feb with a
focus on Open Source / Open Geodata (copy deadline is Dec 14th).
This is a great chance for the Open Data folks -- and the rest of us
Open Code types -- to get some media exposure.
Please contact me if

Is your idea to measure the quality by having a human

A few weeks ago there was a flurry of discussion about standards-related
stuff, up to and including things like how OSGeo members might work with
OGC. Since this is an area I know a bit about, and since I've talked to
some OGC folks about it recently, I'd like to see if I
can help us to try and
I too agree with Gary Co.; I don't personally see the need to release
the results, and in
any case the rules for this past election were set and should not be
changed retroactively.
If we are interested in looking at geographic distributions -- and,
being geo geeks, who wouldn't be? -- then I'd
I'd not go so far as to create a list yet -- I'm not sure we know what
we're all looking for at this point.
For example: do we really want [EMAIL PROTECTED], or perhaps more generally
[EMAIL PROTECTED]? To my mind, these are two related-but-different,
and equally-interesting, ideas to explore...
Three big, on-going concerns of mine:
- How to better do outreach, specifically to companies (GIS or
non-GIS) that either currently don't know much about Open Source or,
worse, think that Open Source is buggy, amatuer-ware, or otherwise
incompatable with their commercial/profit motives.

I've seen a lot of workshops and conferences over the years, both geo

in the end Paul and his team will not be able to satisfy everyone.
To take just four questions off the top of my head:
