Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] GSoC 2020 need new Lead Admin to take over

Thank you to everyone of the admin team, who made GSoC run smoothly in the past year. I'm a little bit surprised that from one year to the other all 6 admins (as listed on the OSGeo page) will not be able to participate anymore. It would be definitely good for OSGeo as a mentoring organisation if t

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Proprietary GIS on our OSGeo website

I think "Switch2osm" is a very good example how to help migrating to non-proprietary tools: https://switch2osm.org/ I quickly went through their site and as far as I could see, competitor names only appear in case studies. Maybe we could have "switch2foss" in a similar way. It's a very good idea t

Hi, I wanted to share some thoughts, because I don't want that Maxi's concerns are buried under lots +1's, that "we are just doing our best for a successful FOSS4G". Maybe Maxi's initial email was a bit strong and contained the "LocationTech" keyword ;-) I don't think anyone (and for sure not Max

Re: [OSGeo-Discuss] Preparation of ideas pages for GSoC 2015 (deadline: 18th February!)

I was also wondering where the 2015 Wiki page is. The pgRouting project maintains a single "GSoC Ideas" page, which gets updated every year: https://github.com/pgRouting/pgrouting/wiki/GSoC-Ideas I have just updated it recently for 2015. Best regards, Daniel On Wed, Feb 18, 2015 at 11:59 PM,

Without being able to attend a code sprint in Seattle, I would like to ask, if this isn't something OSGeo Foundation would be able to cover the risks for. In my opinion this is one of the events OSGeo could support, because it has a high impact on its projects. Leaving such a risk on individuals is

Hi David, We have implemented something like this last year for pgRouting (extension of PostGIS/PostgreSQL). It's very similar to what you describe. Our goal was to have some genetic algorithm to solve the dial-a-ride problem for bus-on-demand as described here http://openvrp.com/blog/darp-algorit
