We have been working towards OSGeo incubation graduation for the last 
 
−
couple of years - brief flurries of activity followed by long periods 
 
−
of inactivity because everyone concerned is occupied with other 
 
−
things.  I've recently picked up the task and am trying to address the 
 
−
final comments and reviews so we can get it before the OSGeo Incubator 
 
−
committee.  Richard Gould has been our OSGeo mentor and we have been 
 
−
recommended for graduation.  We are still trying to track down the 
 
−
status of some minor details and I've moved it up close to the top of 
 
−
my list so we can get everything accomplished.

−
The PSC tries to meet every one or two months and discuss the overall 
 
−
direction of the program.  We are in initial discussions of pulling 
 
−
together ideas for refactoring towards an OSSIM 2.0 baseline.
 
−
Everyone is encouraged to use the wiki page at:  http://trac.osgeo.org/ossim/milestone/ossimPlanet%202.0
 
−
  To add their comments and ideas.  As these gel we'll formalize the

discussion on the mailing list.

−
Garrett Potts (RadiantBlue) and Norman Vine (RadiantBlue)  are going 
 
−
to be focused on API and improvements to ossimPlanet for the next 
 
−
couple of months.  Some of the improvements they are working on are a 
 
−
new dual queue elevation management system, an improved ossimPlanet 
 
−
API, new manipulators, and better support for overall annotation.

−
Dave Burken (SPADAC) has been the primary maintainer of the classified 
 
−
plugin for OSSIM.  This plugin handles classified data sets and 
 
−
formats and is maintained at the SECRET level.  It is used mostly 
 
−
within the US Defense community and a few coalition partners.  This 
 
−
plugin has recently been upgraded and a new version was released for 
 
−
those that have access to it.  It is open source within the 
 
−
appropriate security communities.
 
−
 
 
−
Bill Watkins (RadiantBlue) will be adding Community Sensor Model (CSM) 
 
−
support to the OSSIM baseline, this effort will also refactor some of 
 
−
the code within OSSIM to provide enhanced support for 3D models, 
 
−
LIDAR, and cleaner image to ground and ground to image transformations.
 
−
 
 
−
Scott Bortman (RadiantBlue) is focused on OMAR which is getting a lot 
 
−
of attention on several government projects.  Omar integrates several 
 
−
open source technologies with an OSSIM processing engine to enable 
 
−
dynamic geospatial processing and viewing on the web.  The system is 
 
−
currently indexing very large numbers of (10s of thousands) of 
 
−
geospatial data sets and UAV videos for searches, queries, playback 
 
−
and processing.  Rodger Palko and Jeremy Filizetti from SMS Fed are 
 
−
actively supporting development and integration of the OMAR system.
 
−
 
 
−
We continue to get long term feedback and support from James Hopper at 
 
−
SAIC, the Optics team at Ball Aerospace (Vance Saunders and co), and 
 
−
the ORfeo toolbox (Jordi Inglada) - all users of OSSIM in their 
 
−
solutions.  Also, would like to recognize Massimo Di Stefano from 
 
−
Italy, Bill Clark (Boeing), Phil Lipscomb (SAIC),  and Adam Gurson and 
 
−
his crew from IAI for their support.
 
−
 
 
−
OSSIM is now being supported by a number of government agencies and 
 
−
international corporations.  Many of these projects and customers 
 
−
prefer to remain anonymous, but they all are enthusiastically 
 
−
supporting the open source model and the project by funding key 
 
−
contributors and development efforts.  Part of the mission of the 
 
−
OSSIM team is to prove that you can make a living working on open 
 
−
source projects and doing what you love.
 
−

As to those anonymous agencies and companies,  Al, Willie, Vic, Tom,

Martin, George, Jim, Glenn, Fritz, Terry and Sue - thanks for your

continued support.
