It's great to see so many serious scientific/aerospace applications that Apache projects are being used for.
Random question: does anyone have a list, or even rough number, of how many satellites/rockets out in space are currently running software that includes code from an Apache project? Or, where is the furthest away satellite that includes code from an Apache project? It's *really* cool to think about how Apache projects are both helping people on Earth, but also scientists exploring the universe! - Shane On 9/26/15 10:29 PM, Lewis John Mcgibbney wrote: > Hi dev@community, > > Wanted to make people aware of the above workshop which we are proposing to > co-locate at the Ground Data System Architecture Workshop [0]. > The Open Source in Aerospace Workshop is planned for one full day with the > principle objective being community building. > > Preparation for the workshop will involve the solicitation of position > papers from the community on one of the following topics, determined to be > relevant to OS: > > Process, Maintenance, Reputation, Communities, Intellectual Property, > Export Regulations, Security and Governance. > > Position papers will describe a basis for exploring and discussing the > given topic, and will identify both a leader and a scribe, by name.
