Actions

GeoServer Release Page Generation

Will reduce manual work of creating release pages:

   -

   https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.github.io/pull/104
   -

   https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.github.io/pull/105


   -

   Working fine for Andrea (local Jekyll, tried to open random download
   pages, they are there, seem to be working).


Subsequent update generates download page:

   -

   https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.github.io/pull/106
   -

   https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.github.io/pull/107


   -

   Some testing from Brad, updated README.md with clarifications on bundle
   install step


What is next?

   -

   Q: About github actions?
   -

   May ask Michel for some CSS cleanup?!
   -

   Migrate release pages for 2.9, 2.8, 2.7, 2.6, 2.5, 2.3, 2.2 … if we want
   them listed on download page
   -

   I noticed terrible workarounds in javascript to javascript to
   post-process some output! These I am sure can be removed ...



WMS time and caching headers (from ml)

Thread on the mailing list: “Time WMS "magic" and caching sometimes at
odds, new config to handle the situation
<http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/Time-WMS-quot-magic-quot-and-caching-sometimes-at-odds-new-config-to-handle-the-situation-td5487368.html>
”

What about cases where data near the present is changinging, e.g. with time
set to the day only that changes throughout the day and then becomes static?

   -

   Maybe a candidate for a future capability?
   -

   What about mismatch without the nearest match enabled? What happens in
   that case? GWC caches anyways? Any error?


“No Nearest match” could be renamed to “Failed nearest match” or “Out of
range match”.
GeoServer 2.19.1 release status

   -

   Release is available online
   -

      Jody to send email next

OGC-API Sprint this week!

Sprint is https://www.ogc.org/ogcevents/may-2021-ogc-api-virtual-code-sprint


Wednesday

   -

   Andrea: set up some sample data:
   -

      Can ask OGC cost sharing
      
<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1NK9zJlwaUNKV0_yAHsZXtI3mzOA9riNAu86iP1RzSo0/viewform>
      if use the sample data
      -

      Check on tiles, styles, maps, …
      -

   Michel: catching up on styling

Thursday

   -

   Jody will set up a separate download, …

Friday

   -

   Demo to sponsors etc…


Topics to keep an eye on:

   -

   CQL is evolving, perhaps check in with how close it is to ECQL?
   -

   JSON encoding that GeoTools json-cql probably won’t work and can be
   removed

GeoServer CITE Planning

PR is still in feedback:

   -

   https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/pull/4907

Docker image:

   -

   Please test docker image for local development


How do folks feel about September?

   -

   Perhaps too close to foss4g?


How about October?

   -

   Ask on the list …


Fundraising:

   -

   We already have funds from prior fundraising
   -

      Should we ask for additional sponsorship?
      -

      Is it useful to have funding for a sprint, what we need are people
      -

   How do feel about cost sharing arrangement
   -

      GeoNetwork does something similar for their sprints …
      -

      This would help organizations sending staff …
      -

         May or may not help individuals attending on their own steam ..
         -

      Approach:
      -

         Ask organizations attending how much they plan to spend like OGC
         does
         -

         Use the number of staff provided / amount spent to define baseline
         -

         Use this as a baseline for distributing any cost sharing from
         sponsors
         -

         Send the same amount to individuals etc… use email rather than
         invoice
         -

   How about - to qualify
   -

      Coordinate with sprint planning, to avoid everyone working on the
      same spec
      -

      Contribute a pull request during the course of the sprint (even docs)
