== Communication ==

* Please join the mailing list: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net

== Costs ==

Participants should plan for the following costs:

* Travel to Minneapolis/St. Paul
* Accommodation for x nights

== Individual preparation ==

* Bring your own laptop
* Bring [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country your power connector adapter] if needed (photo: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:B_plug.jpg]). See also http://www.power-plugs-sockets.com/
* Install Git and compiler tools, and come with a working development environment

== Sponsoring ==

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition of organizing code sprints for developers of Open Source GIS software.
(https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Code_Sprints).

An international community/code sprint for OSGeo will take place May 14-17, 2019.

We expect about 50 developers from all over the world to come from various [https://www.osgeo.org/, OSGeo] projects. Whether desktop application, geospatial library, metadata catalog or web mapping: be sure to find products in the list that you use. The sprint is also an opportunity for your developers to meet with the core developers of the projects, get a deeper insight into the software and participate in the development.

This years' sprint will take place at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities in Minneapolis and will be hosted by [https://research.umn.edu/units/uspatial, U-Spatial] and organized by [https://www.sharedgeo.org/, SharedGeo] and members of the local OSGeo user group (TCMUG).

In addition to the costs of providing the technical infrastructure and space, food and drink for the developers represents the main cost. Morning/afternoon meals and drinks during the day are planned. In addition, we hope to provide several evening meals and social events.

In order to cover these costs we would be overjoyed to accept offers of sponsorship!

What we can offer:
* Your logo on top of the [https://www.osgeo.org/events/OSGeo_Community_Sprint_2019/ community sprint website] as well as on all official documents used during the sprint
* Acknowledgement in all sprint related emails
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (remember that feature you wanted?)

Our sponsorship levels:
* Gold: >= 2500 USD
* Silver: 1500 USD
* Bronze: 750 USD

So...
* get your company talking to the top project developers.
* encourage your GIS developers to take advantage of this opportunity, there is no better opportunity to learn!
* support the software you use - you benefit immediately.

Thank you very much!

Contact: To sponsor, please contact tosprint@lists.osgeo.org directly.

== Communication ==

* Please join the mailing list: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net

== Costs ==

Participants should plan for the following costs:

* Travel to Minneapolis/St. Paul
* Accommodation for x nights

== Individual preparation ==

* Bring your own laptop
* Bring [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_electricity_by_country your power connector adapter] if needed (photo: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:B_plug.jpg]). See also http://www.power-plugs-sockets.com/
* Install Git and compiler tools, and come with a working development environment

== Sponsoring ==

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has a long tradition of organizing code sprints for developers of Open Source GIS software.
(https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Category:Code_Sprints).

An international community/code sprint for OSGeo will take place May 14-17, 2019.

We expect about 50 developers from all over the world to come from various [https://www.osgeo.org/, OSGeo] projects. Whether desktop application, geospatial library, metadata catalog or web mapping: be sure to find products in the list that you use. The sprint is also an opportunity for your developers to meet with the core developers of the projects, get a deeper insight into the software and participate in the development.

This years' sprint will take place at the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities in Minneapolis and will be hosted by [https://research.umn.edu/units/uspatial, U-Spatial] and organized by [https://www.sharedgeo.org/, SharedGeo] and members of the local OSGeo user group (TCMUG).

In addition to the costs of providing the technical infrastructure and space, food and drink for the developers represents the main cost. Morning/afternoon meals and drinks during the day are planned. In addition, we hope to provide several evening meals and social events.

In order to cover these costs we would be overjoyed to accept offers of sponsorship!

What we can offer:
* Your logo on top of the [https://www.osgeo.org/events/OSGeo_Community_Sprint_2019/ community sprint website] as well as on all official documents used during the sprint
* Acknowledgement in all sprint related emails
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (remember that feature you wanted?)

Our sponsorship levels:
* Gold: >= 2500 USD
* Silver: 1500 USD
* Bronze: 750 USD

So...
* get your company talking to the top project developers.
* encourage your GIS developers to take advantage of this opportunity, there is no better opportunity to learn!
* support the software you use - you benefit immediately.

Thank you very much!

Contact: To sponsor, please contact tosprint@lists.osgeo.org directly.

SAC:Mailing Lists

2017-04-12T20:06:22Z

Wiki-Mloskot: Remove me from admins

Mailing lists are administered with Mailman on lists.osgeo.org (see http://lists.osgeo.org for a list of available lists), physically this is osgeo6. Jorge Sanz (jsanz) does most of the mailman work, with Frank Warmerdam (warmerdam) and Martin Spott (martin) being the server side people if there are super technical issues.

= Notes for List Administrators =

== Requesting a new list ==

If your project or activity would like to have a mailing list at lists.osgeo.org please take the following steps:

* First, confirm that there isn't already an appropriate list for this activity, and consider whether OSGeo is the right home for the proposed list.
* File a ticket at http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo (use your OSGeo Userid to login) and make sure the component is set to "SAC". This is the request to the System Administration Committee to create the list.
* Please include the exact name you would like for the list (ie. foo-announce), and the email address of the person who should be the list admin. Also provide the justification for the list, and indicate if it was explicitly requested by an OSGeo Project PSC or project representative.
* Include any special instructions (such pointers to info if the list is actually being migrated from elsewhere).
* Hopefully, someone in SAC will act on the ticket and create the list. When complete the ticket will be updated and closed, and the proposed admin will receive an email with the admin password for the list.
* Review the list settings, in particular ensuring that the short description gets set (ie. review following points)

Generally it is up to the mailman administrator to judge whether a list is justified for creation. The justification doesn't need to be strong, but the list should be OSGeo related, reasonably likely to generate some use, or be requested on behalf of a project.

== All lists ==

* Please set "A terse phrase identifying this list." to something brief and meaningful as this is what is shown on the main lists directory. It is on the ''General'' tab.
* Set "Who can view subscription list?" on the ''Privacy'' tab to "List Admin Only", otherwise anyone can subscribe and then harvest the mailing list.
* Set ''generic_nonmember_action'' on the ''Privacy->Sender filters'' tab to reject as most lists are not actively administered so we prefer to reject rather than holding posts from unsubscribed folks.
* Ensure the "Prefix for subject line of list postings." on the ''General'' tab is set to something meaningful. If the list name is generic (such as "announce") it may be helpful to prefix it with OSGeo-, eg. "[OSGeo-Announce]"
* Be sure to choose a name that does not already have an existing alias, such as: sales, support, www, security. If you need to use one of these names someone will have to edit the /etc/aliases file for you manually.

== Other options ==

* For announce lists (ie. moderated lists) turn on "Emergency moderation of all list traffic" on. It is on the ''General'' tab.

= Outstanding Issues =

# Administrator/moderator permissions. Currently this is a hodgepodge. Some administrators have set the passwords but then others can't help administrate the list. The default admin password is not very secure. It has been suggested that we use some sort of LDAP/http authentication to verify that folks trying to do list admin are in some sort of mail administration group.
# List setting policies. Do we want to mandate more policies than the ones listed above as "Notes for List Administrators"?
# Search. Do we want to do anything special to enable searching the archive? Jason has setup an OSGeo.org grouping on nabble (<strike>http://www.nabble.com/OSGeo.org-f18127.html</strike>, http://osgeo-org.1803224.n2.nabble.com/) that makes searching all osgeo related mailing lists effective. We might want to expand on that.

= System Tasks =

== New Lists ==

* Create a new list through the [http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/create web admin login].

== Renaming Lists ==

* create new list
$sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/newlist listname admins@email lists_passwd
* move original lists archive to newlists archive location
$ sudo cp /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/oldlist.mbox/oldlist.mbox \
/var/lib/mailman/archives/private/newlist.mbox/newlist.mbox
* create archive
$ sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/arch --wipe newlist
* export subscribers from old list regular and digest members
$ sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members -r oldlistname > listname-regular.txt
$ sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members -d oldlistname > listname-digest.txt
* import subscribers into new list
$ sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/add_members --regular-members=listname-regular.txt --welcome-msg=y newlistname
$ sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/add_members --digest-members=listname-digest.txt --welcome-msg=y newlistname
* remove old list
$ sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/rmlist oldlistname
* check that proper permissions are set (takes 10+ minutes!)
$ sudo /usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms -f
* edit postfix aliases - /etc/aliases
oldlist: newlist@lists.osgeo.org
oldlist-request: newlist-request@lists.osgeo.org
oldlist-admin: newlist-admin@lists.osgeo.org
oldlist-owner: newlist-owner@lists.osgeo.org
* update postfix with new aliases
$ sudo /usr/bin/newaliases
$ sudo /usr/sbin/service postfix reload

== copy / clone user addresses across lists ==
* add '''-r''' to remove the old address
$ sudo clone_member old@address.com new@address.com

== Migrate ==

When migrating from another system to osgeo, get the .mbox files, and the whole /var/lib/mailman/lists/<listname> directory, and follow roughly the following steps as root (or sudo each step):

# newlist -q grass-announce warmerdam@pobox.com junk
# cd /var/lib/mailman/lists/grass-announce
# cp ~warmerdam/grass-announce/* .
# withlist -l -r fix_url grass-announce
# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/arch grass-announce ~warmerdam/grass-announce.mbox
# chown -R list.list /var/lib/mailman/lists/grass-announce
# chown -R list.list /var/lib/mailman/archives/private/grass-announce*
# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/genaliases
# /usr/sbin/service postfix restart
# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/mailmanctl restart

If the list name on the new system is different than on the old system, it may be prudent to fix this up on the mail page of the web admin interface after the ''withlist'' command has been used, and before the archives are imported. (''FrankW'')

== References ==
* Here is [http://www.chris-lamb.co.uk/2007/10/02/renaming-a-mailman-list/ another approach to renaming], though our web admin interface won't actually allow you to do the final rename step

== Remove Mails from Archive ==
Sometimes users send mails with contentious content to the list and ask for it to be removed. As a courtesy this should be done asap. In general it is better to not remove the mail altogether but just remove the content. Instructions:
* http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4030681
Archives live in:
/var/lib/mailman/archives/
To recreate archives use:
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/arch [listname]

== List Statistics ==

From time to time it is nice to get a sense of the number of lists, users, etc. The following may be helpful:

all subscribers of all osgeo lists hosted on osgeo.org:

sudo list_lists -b | xargs -n 1 sudo list_members | wc -l

unique list of email addresses across all lists:

sudo list_lists -b | xargs -n 1 sudo list_members | sort | uniq | wc -l

Note: since 2009 there is [[User:Neteler|Markus Neteler]]'s cronjob running for gathering these statistics and sending them to "info AT osgeo org". For a time series, [[VisibilityStats#Mailing_list_subscribers|see statistics]]

= Nabble =

There are a variety of web forum oriented interfaces for mailing lists that can be connected to existing mailing lists. One of the most widely used is Nabble and OSGeo makes an effort to provide some administrative support for it.

The Nabble liasons for OSGeo are [[Jorge Sanz]] as a backup.

Technical details to follow.

* In order to help building the OSGeo brand and credibility, it's recommended the Planet is not formed by anonymous individuals but its members use real names. Also, [http://planet.osgeo.org/heads/ heads] are highly recommended.
* Some guidelines for acceptance or temporal/permanent ban are being discussed at [[Talk:PlanetOSGeo]]

=== Planet Content ===
* Planet OSGeo aims to aggregate the blogs of people who are active on OSGeo and not only to aggregate the blog posts about OSGeo.
* The Planet shall not do any content filter, however subscribed feeds ought to be at least occasionally relevant to OSGeo.
* All opinions expressed in syndicated blogs are of the original authors and should not be considered as official opinion of the OSGeo Foundation body.
* Planet users are free to submit "on-topic" posts by pointing specific categories/tags in their feeds. But other posts are also welcome.
* It's a good idea to stay away from advertising content (or content that might be confused as such) and from excessively personal information
* Please, don't annoy people

=== Feed Submission ===
* Feeds should provide stable permanent URL
* Broken feeds will be excluded from the Planet
* '''IMPORTANT''': Please, check your blog with http://validator.w3.org otherwise your feed may seriously break the Planet OSGeo look & feel.

== How can I add my blog ==
If you want to add your blog to the [http://planet.osgeo.org/ OSGeo Planet], send your request on ''planet at osgeo dot org''
specifying:

* your contact name
* your contact email
* blog URL
* blog feed URL (with the items you want to be displayed on Planet OSGeo)
* blog name
* primary language of your blog content
* (not mandatory but recommended) include your [http://planet.osgeo.org/heads/ head] picture of max size of '''80x80 pixels'''

If you would like to syndicate only posts that belong to a particular category of your blog, you can do it by sending URL pointing to feed of that category, something that looks like:

http://blog.myside.org/category/osgeo/feed

= Planet OSGeo Implementation =
The Planet OSGeo - a website that aggregates blogs of active ''Friends of OSGeo'' and provide a window into the community itself.

[http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/206 Ticket #206 - Planet OSGeo RFC]

Status: '''approved'''

== Planet Configuration ==
* Maintainers: [[User:Mloskot|Mateusz Loskot]]
* Domain: http://planet.osgeo.org
* Software: [http://intertwingly.net/code/venus/ Planet Venus] as recommended by [http://crschmidt.net/blog/archives/204/fed-up-with-planetgs/ Chris] and [http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/discuss/2008-February/003146.html James]
* Hardware: osgeo2

=== Update Steps ===

*Edit master configuration file

/osgeo/venus/planet_osgeo.config

*each entry should look like this:

# contact: contact@blogname.com
# added: 2011-07-14
[blog feed url]
name = blog name
link = blog url
face = head-blogname.png
facewidth = 80
faceheight = 80

*Save head image to

/osgeo/venus/themes/osgeo/heads

*Run update script as root user:

[root@planet]# python /osgeo/venus/planet.py /osgeo/venus/planet_osgeo.config
.......some errors/warnings will show here if feeds fail to download
[root@osgeo2]#

=== Troubleshooting ===
==== Stray Comments ====
The planet.py scripts are picky about formatting, a stray comment hash is enough to kill it. Confronted by this error:
<code>
...
File "/usr/local/venus/planet/config.py", line 90, in <lambda>
setattr(config, name, lambda section, default=default:
ValueError: invalid literal for int(): 40 #25
</code>
Led me to check the /usr/local/etc/planet_osgeo.config file and change the '''"items_per_page = 40 #25"''' to '''"items_per_page = 40"'''. I guess the config parser doesn't ignore comments after all :)

==== Test Scripts ====
There are two scripts that are run during planet updates, one '''spider.py''' and one '''splice.py'''. If wondering where the update process is breaking try running '''spider.py''' with the config file as a variable. Then followed by '''splice.py''' - it might help you understand where it's dying or at least if dying is related to grabbing the feed updates or not.

= References =

== Purpose ==

Bring together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial
problems as in previous years:

* [[Philadelphia Code Sprint 2015|Philadelphia]] (2015)
* [[Vienna Code Sprint 2014|Vienna]] (2014)
* [[Boston Code Sprint 2013|Boston]] (2013)
* [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012|Island Wood (Seattle)]] (2012)
* [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011)
* [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010)
* [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)

== Dates and Times ==

Dates:
* Welcome event: evening of Mon, Feb 22 (see below)
* Sprint: Tues, Feb 23 - Fri, Feb 26 (4 days), from 9h30 till 19h00

== Place ==
* 16bis Boulevard Montmartre, 75009 Paris - Mozilla Foundation
* https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2883451098
* Metro: Grand Boulevard or Richelieu Drouot

'''To be noticed: For security reason, you have to be registered (on this Wiki page) to be allowed to enter in Mozilla place.'''

We could use three kind of spaces:
# The main code sprint room (with seats and tables, video projection, paperboard)
# A "bar" room, just beside the main one (for meals, brakes, T-Time...)
# Meeting room (allowing group to talk without making too many noise in the main room)

Few rules to follow:
# Keep in mind to carefully close Mozilla outside door (aim is to not allow any outsider to get in).
# No meal, nor drink in the main sprint room (plain water is tolerated).
# Don't waste Internet bandwith (as we share all the same Wifi hotspot).
# Food and drinks are available in the bar room, you could use freely OSGeo ones (but not Mozilla ones).

== Evenings ==

== Communication ==

* Please join the mailing list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net
* Twitter: #TOSprint ( https://twitter.com/search?q=tosprint )

== Costs ==

Participants should plan for the following costs:

* Travel to Paris
* Accommodation for four nights (including breakfast)

All other costs - food, outings and entertainment - should/will be covered by the sponsors

== Hotel and co ==

Center of Paris is indeed quite small, the sprint place quite central, and metro network quite dense. 
So no special need to be that close from the sprint place (anywhere else in Paris could also be fine, with less than 30-45' by tube).

However, nice hotels, quite close to the sprint place:
* http://www.astotel.com/hotel/hotel-le-34b/overview
* http://www.hotel20prieure.com/

A common way to find a discounted room in Paris is to use: booking.com

Paris is also well known to became an AirBNB city. 
Could be so a way to share (big) flat, among some sprinters.

And there's also hostels, for those who want/need to find a cheaper hosting solution.
* http://www.hostelworld.com/Paris

== Sponsors ==

We have three sponsorship levels:

* Gold: >= 2500 €
* Silver: 1500 €
* Bronze: 750 €

We encourage sponsors to support nutriment and entertainment for the
sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four or five productive days.
Contributions will be put towards lunch, snacks, and dinner costs for the
sprinters, and potentially bringing in sprinters who might otherwise be unable
to attend. Any surplus at the end of the event will be turned over to OSGeo or
used for a future code sprint.

Sponsors will receive the following honors:

* Your logo at the top of this page
* Mention in all of our public communication
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (Remember that feature you wanted...)
* And as extra, for Silver and Gold: Kakemono in the event room (if you provide it)

To sponsor, please contact Olivier Courtin (olivier dot courtin at oslandia dot com) directly.

== Purpose ==

Bring together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial
problems as in previous years:

* [[Philadelphia Code Sprint 2015|Philadelphia]] (2015)
* [[Vienna Code Sprint 2014|Vienna]] (2014)
* [[Boston Code Sprint 2013|Boston]] (2013)
* [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012|Island Wood (Seattle)]] (2012)
* [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011)
* [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010)
* [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)

== Dates and Times ==

Dates:
* Welcome event: evening of Mon, Feb 22 (see below)
* Sprint: Tues, Feb 23 - Fri, Feb 26 (4 days), from 9h30 till 19h00

== Place ==
* 16bis Boulevard Montmartre, 75009 Paris - Mozilla Foundation
* https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2883451098
* Metro: Grand Boulevard or Richelieu Drouot

'''To be noticed: For security reason, you have to be registered (on this Wiki page) to be allowed to enter in Mozilla place.'''

We could use three kind of spaces:
# The main code sprint room (with seats and tables, video projection, paperboard)
# A "bar" room, just beside the main one (for meals, brakes, T-Time...)
# Meeting room (allowing group to talk without making too many noise in the main room)

Few rules to follow:
# Keep in mind to carefully close Mozilla outside door (aim is to not allow any outsider to get in).
# No meal, nor drink in the main sprint room (plain water is tolerated).
# Don't waste Internet bandwith (as we share all the same Wifi hotspot).
# Food and drinks are available in the bar room, you could use freely OSGeo ones (but not Mozilla ones).

== Evenings ==

=== Feb 22 aka Welcoming Event ===

* Bar called: Le rendez vous des Amis
* 23 Rue Gabrielle - Metro Pigale or Abbesses in Montmartre area.
* https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/1920884507
* Meeting starting at 19h00

== Purpose ==

Bring together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial
problems as in previous years:

* [[Philadelphia Code Sprint 2015|Philadelphia]] (2015)
* [[Vienna Code Sprint 2014|Vienna]] (2014)
* [[Boston Code Sprint 2013|Boston]] (2013)
* [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012|Island Wood (Seattle)]] (2012)
* [[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011)
* [[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010)
* [[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)

== Dates and Times ==

Dates:
* Welcome event: evening of Mon, Feb 22 (see below)
* Sprint: Tues, Feb 23 - Fri, Feb 26 (4 days), from 9h30 till 19h00

== Place ==
* 16bis Boulevard Montmartre, 75009 Paris - Mozilla Foundation
* https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/2883451098
* Metro: Grand Boulevard or Richelieu Drouot

'''To be noticed: For security reason, you have to be registered (on this Wiki page) to be allowed to enter in Mozilla place.'''

We could use three kind of spaces:
# The main code sprint room (with seats and tables, video projection, paperboard)
# A "bar" room, just beside the main one (for meals, brakes, T-Time...)
# Meeting room (allowing group to talk without making too many noise in the main room)

Few rules to follow:
# Keep in mind to carefully close Mozilla outside door (aim is to not allow any outsider to get in).
# No meal, nor drink in the main sprint room (plain water is tolerated).
# Don't waste Internet bandwith (as we share all the same Wifi hotspot).
# Food and drinks are available in the bar room, you could use freely OSGeo ones (but not Mozilla ones).

== Communication ==

* Please join the mailing list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/tosprint
* IRC chat during the event: #tosprint Server: irc.freenode.net
* Twitter: #TOSprint ( https://twitter.com/search?q=tosprint )

== Costs ==

Participants should plan for the following costs:

* Travel to Paris
* Accommodation for four nights (including breakfast)

All other costs - food, outings and entertainment - should/will be covered by the sponsors

== Hotel and co ==

Center of Paris is indeed quite small, the sprint place quite central, and metro network quite dense. 
So no special need to be that close from the sprint place (anywhere else in Paris could also be fine, with less than 30-45' by tube).

However, nice hotels, quite close to the sprint place:
* http://www.astotel.com/hotel/hotel-le-34b/overview
* http://www.hotel20prieure.com/

A common way to find a discounted room in Paris is to use: booking.com

Paris is also well known to became an AirBNB city. 
Could be so a way to share (big) flat, among some sprinters.

And there's also hostels, for those who want/need to find a cheaper hosting solution.
* http://www.hostelworld.com/Paris

== Sponsors ==

We have three sponsorship levels:

* Gold: >= 2500 €
* Silver: 1500 €
* Bronze: 750 €

We encourage sponsors to support nutriment and entertainment for the
sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four or five productive days.
Contributions will be put towards lunch, snacks, and dinner costs for the
sprinters, and potentially bringing in sprinters who might otherwise be unable
to attend. Any surplus at the end of the event will be turned over to OSGeo or
used for a future code sprint.

Sponsors will receive the following honors:

* Your logo at the top of this page
* Mention in all of our public communication
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (Remember that feature you wanted...)
* And as extra, for Silver and Gold: Kakemono in the event room (if you provide it)

To sponsor, please contact Olivier Courtin (olivier dot courtin at oslandia dot com) directly.

SoC Report 2007

2014-06-12T15:01:56Z

Wiki-Mloskot: Tiny fix

== OSGeo participation in Google Summer of Code 2007 ==

by Wolf Bergenheim

Last summer, from May 1st 2007 to August 31st 2007, OSGeo participated in the Google Summer of Code. This article sums up that experience and gives a short presentation of each Summer of Code project.

== What is SoC? ==

Quoting [http://code.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=60266&topic=10726 Google FAQ]

<blockquote> Google Summer of Code TM is a program that offers student developers stipends to write code for various open source projects. Google will be working with a several open source, free software and technology-related groups to identify and fund several projects over a three month period. Historically, the program has brought together over 1,000 students with over 100 open source projects, to create hundreds of thousands of lines of code. The program, which kicked off in 2005, is now in its third year, following on from a very successful 2006. </blockquote><blockquote> While the majority of past student participants were enrolled in university Computer Science and Computer Engineering programs, GSoCers come from a wide variety of educational backgrounds, from computational biology to mining engineering. Many of our past participants had never participated in an open-source project before GSoC; others used the GSoC stipend as an opportunity to concentrate fully on their existing open source coding activities over the summer. Several of our 2005 students went on to become mentors in 2006.</blockquote>

== What projects participated? ==

First of I'd like to congratulate the students on a job well done. A lot of cool and very usefull projects were completed in SoC 2007. We did loose a student or two, who were overtaken by other priorities. But the overall success of projects is something we should be proud of. Good work! Hope SoC 2008 will be at least as good.

Now on to present the Projects of Summer 2007.

=== GDAL ===

==== GDAL2Tiles ====

'''Student'''<nowiki>: Klokan Petr Pridal </nowiki>'''Mentor'''<nowiki>: Howard Butler </nowiki>

This project is to allow easy publishing of raster maps on the Internet. Raster maps (like TIFF/GeoTIFF, MrSID, ECW, JPEG2000, JPEG, PNG) are converted into a directory structure of small PNG tiles (TMS compatible), which can be copied to a webserver. Simple webpages with viewers based on Google Maps and OpenLayers are also generated as well. This tool makes publishing even large maps without needing to install or configure any special software (like mapserver) and the map displays very fast in the webbrowser. GDAL2Tiles also generates necessary metadata for Google Earth (KML SuperOverlay), if the supplied map uses EPSG:4326 projection. The gdalwarp utility can be used to convert raster maps with another projection. World files and embedded georeference is used during tile and KML generation, but proper georeference is not mandatory.

Tile structure follows recommendation from [http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Tile_Map_Service_Specification OSGeo Tile Map Service Specification]

Manual page for utility is part of the solution, as well as a document describing several existing tile structures with links to further documentation. Analysis of rotated SuperOverlay KML is done as well.

For more info look at the [http://www.klokan.cz/projects/gdal2tiles/ project page]

This project was accepted by GDAL community as ticket [http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/ticket/1763 <nowiki>#1763</nowiki>]. This utility is distributed with the new stable version of GDAL 1.5.0.

==== KML read support for the existing driver ====

'''Student:''' Jens Oberender '''Mentor:''' Mateusz Loskot

This project added KML vector read support.

For more information read [http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/SoCKMLRead Wiki page]

This project is included in the new version 1.5.0 of OGR

==== Web Map Services GDAL driver ====

'''Student''' Adam Nowacki '''Mentor:''' Daniel Morissette

Development of a OGC Web Map Services GDAL driver, with support for the following Web Map Services:

* OGC WMS and WMS-C cache
* WorldWind TileService

The new driver has been included in the official GDAL codebase and included in the 1.5.0 release. [http://www.gdal.org/frmt_wms.html Driver documentation is available] and the [http://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/SoCWMSDriver Wiki page] hase more information.

This project is included in the new version 1.5.0 of OGR

=== GRASS ===

==== v.generalize ====

'''Student:''' Daniel Bundala '''Mentor:''' Wolf Bergenheim

v.generalize is a project which does line simplification as described by McMaster. The original plan was to implement Douglas-Peucker and a few more line simplification algorithms. Daniel Bundala (the student) surprised his mentor by working a lot more efficiently and as a result GRASS 6.3 now includes a brand new generalization module which is capable of not only simplification but also smoothing and displacement. There is also a method for network simplification in the module.

For more information see the [http://grass.osgeo.org/grass63/manuals/html63_user/v.generalize.html module documentation]

v.generalize is included in the new 6.3.0 release of GRASS (as of RC4).

The module has also been used to substantially speed-up and improve quality of
interpolation from contour data
[http://skagit.meas.ncsu.edu/~helena/grasswork/interpgen.html when computing digital elevation models].

==== v.net.visibility ====

'''Student:''' Maximilian Maldacker '''Mentor:''' Wolf Bergenheim

v.net.visibility builds a visibility network around some obstacles. The created network can then be further analyzed with existing v.net.* modules. It can also be merged with an existing network, like a road network, and this enable plotting shortest paths beyond an existing road network, say for emergency vehicles.

For more information see the [http://grass.osgeo.org/grass63/manuals/html63_user/v.net.visibility.html module documentation]

v.net.visibility is included in the new 6.3.0 release of GRASS (as of RC4)

=== uDig ===

==== Caching data ====

'''Student:''' Christophe Rousson '''Mentor:''' Ian Turton

A feature cache. A RAM cache might use the LRU algorithm and have a maximum amount of RAM to consume setting. A local disk cache and local disk cache might use a size-only and/or maximum age based algorithm. Ideally as items fall out of RAM, they would be written to disk. At session close, remaining items in RAM would also be written to disk (much like Google Earth). Upon startup, cache could be polled to see if anything already exists within the current spatial window (if it hasn't expired).

For more information see the [http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/SoC+2007+Caching data Wiki page]

This project is on the trunk/development version of uDig.

==== Transformation Algorithms ====

'''Student:''' Jan Jezek '''Mentor:''' Jesse Eichar

GeoTools Referencing module has been becoming one of the most powerful tools
focused on coordinate system transformations in JAVA GIS world in recent years.
Referencing module in conjunction with Coverage module presents a really strong
tool for raster operations like re-projecting and transforming. One of the
frequently required operations in GIS is to fit rasters like scans of maps or
remote sensing images that have unknown coordinate reference system into the
real world coordinate reference system. In GeoTools there are already few
possibilities to do so. The aim of this project is to add other algorithms for
that purpose and then to make a simple GUI for uDig to apply these new
functions.

These new algorithms are:
* New interpolation-based methods - inverse distance weighted (IDW) interpolation, bilinear interpolation.
* Thin-plate Spline method (TPS).
* More general piecewise transformation.

For more information see the [http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/New+Transformation+Algorithms+for+GeoTools+and+uDig Wiki page]

This project is on the trunk/development version of uDig.

==== Interactive GeoRSS Tool ====

'''Student:''' Rui Li '''Mentor:''' Richard Gould

As a user focused geographical information system, one of its goals is to satisfying system users by providing sufficient information to their specific needs. In many cases like traveling or moving, a traveler would like to find Places of interest close to his/her hotel, or a student wants to find an apartment within feasible walking distance to school. The traditional way contains two separate steps which are looking for potential locations and then confirming the distance by the user him/herself. This project combines the two steps together.

=== Geoserver ===

==== JTileCache ====

'''Student:''' Chris Whitney '''Mentor:''' Justin Deoliveira

Implemented a WMS-C server (similar to TileCache of MetaCarta) as a Java servlet, including support for existing cache libraries in order to support memory, disk, and distributed caches. The Open Planning Project (TOPP) is continuing development on the project. In particular, Arne Kepp contributed significant new features and bug fixes, including releasing a 0.5 version under a more suitable name, GeoWebCache. The project currently lives at http://geowebcache.org. The GeoServer [http://sigma.openplans.org demonstration site] now uses GeoWebCache for serving WMS tiles to the client.

==== Style Editor ====

'''Student:''' Anthony Manfredi '''Mentor:''' Andrea Aime

To design and implement an editor for SLD files with using JavaScript.

* Standalone - editor is not tied to a particular program (uDig, MapBuilder, GeoServer)
* Visual - users can preview the results of changes as they are made.
* Intuitive - easy to learn but not cumbersome or limiting for the advanced user.

For more information see the [http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/GeoServer+Style+Editor Wiki page]

=== GeoTools ===

==== Multi-Dimensional Raster Data Sources ====

'''Student:''' Daniele Romagnolil '''Mentor:''' Simone Giannecchini

This is a set of Java Image I/O plugins capable to provide a starting point for building GeoTools plugins to manage multidimensional data formats such as NetCDF, HDF, GRIB1.

* HDF (Hierarchical Data Format) is a library and a multi-object file format

created and developed by NCSA (http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/).

* NetCDF. Quoting from (http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/software/netcdf/), "NetCDF (network Common Data Form) is a set of software libraries and machine-independent data formats that support the creation, access, and sharing of array-oriented scientific data."
* GRIB1 is a data format standardized by the World Meteorological Organization's Commission (http://www.wmo.ch/) for Basic Systems, which is commonly used in meteorology to store historical and forecasted weather data.

For more information see [http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/Plugins+for+multidimensional+raster+data+sources Wiki page]

==== 3D Rendering Pipeline ====

'''Student:''' Hans Haggstrom '''Mentor:''' Jody Garnett

The 3D Renderer provides a three dimensional view of GeoTools geographical data. It uses the normal 2D renderer for rendering the surface texture. It implements a level of detail based loading and caching system for the geographical data to speed up rendering, and allow perspective views showing both nearby and far away features at the same time. Possible future improvements are rendering elevation data based on height coverage data. In addition, there could be support for some common 3D rendering styles that can be used for features consisting of points, lines, and areas.

For more information see [http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/3D Rendering Pipeline for GeoTools Wiki page]

=== PostGIS ===

==== Coverage Model and Operations ====

'''Student:''' Xing Lin '''Mentor:''' Timothy Keitt

This project includes a raster data model and its storage in PostGIS. Import and export tools are also available for popular image formats. There is a paper about this project available at http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/xpl/freeabs_all.jsp?arnumber=1370128

== Mentor Summit ==

Some (well behaving, meaning turning in their surveys in time etc.) projects were asked to send a mentor to the SoC Mentor summit. OSGeo sent me (Wolf Bergenheim from the GRASS project). Mentors from over 100 projects joined forces at Google HQ in Mountainview CA, and discussed varied aspects of the SoC. The summit was arranged as an unconference, meaning that the participants generated the program. A wiki with the talks is set up at http://googlesummerofcode.jot.com/

=== Lessons learned ===

Many lessons were learned in the SoC 2007 (at least by me), both as a mentor, but also general points on how to attract more developers and how to "keep" SoC students with the projects. Burst let me talk about how to attract students.

==== How to attract students? ====

We did get about twice as many projects proposals as we had slots available, but compared to other projects it was actually quite slim. I will now discuss how we could maybe attract more students this year.

===== Promise fame and glory =====

With this I mean that it should be clearly indicated that the students will be given "media time". This means spotlights at the OSGeo website, maybe even a news item telling about their prograss. And similar exposure within the project that they work.

===== Show that you appreciate their work =====

The code that the students produce should end up in the main code repository, and it should be made clear from the start that this will happen. Also We should promise to include their project in the next release after it is completed. If we promise that their code will become part of the project it should motivate the students even more.

===== Have interesting but a vague ideas list =====

When we compose a project idea list we should leave room for innovation. Let the students fill the gaps. That way we will attract maybe the more correct types.

===== Work with the student from day 0 =====

This means that when you see an interesting application, take the time to set up a wiki page to flesh out the idea with the student. Last year there was plenty of time to talk things with the would be students. Chatting on IRC is also good. When the students see that we are committed to the SoC and that we listen to them they should become more interested.

===== Integration to the community =====

Once we have selected the best students to work on the coolest projects we should integrate them into the community to hopefully get new eager committed developers (fresh blood, as I like to call it). How do we accomplish that?

===== Have the student talk on public mailing lists and IRC channels =====

Most, if not all project communication should be on the main project development list and IRC channel. If the student is shy, one trick is to say "I don't know, try the developers list" Once they get used to sending mail there (and see that nobody bit their head off) they should have no problem in becoming integrated, maybe they might even answer some unrelated emails.

===== Make sure that the whole project knows about and is aware of the SoC =====

If the whole project knows about the student, they will help you make him feel welcome.

===== Help them finish successfully =====

If the student struggles, chances are that he won't finish the project. If he is provided with help and a whole community of supportive developers, he won't have to struggle as much, and he will most likely finish.

===== Keep the student happy =====

A happy developer is a productive developer. If the student feels welcome and liked he will probably enjoy being part of the community, and thus will most probably stay with us.

===== Cross-project cooperation and cooperation outside OSGeo =====

There was also talk about collaborating with other organizations over the SoC. For us this means either that we could come up with SoC projects which involve more then one OSGeo project, or it could mean that we collaborate with a non OSGeo project like Drupal. Drupal has shown interest in collaborating with PostGIS regarding geo stuff. This means that we could give them one mentor to help with geo things while they would give us a mentor to help with the PHP. It could be one or two projects.

== Wrap-up ==

Last year SoC came a bit like a surprise for us at GRASS, so we were not really able to organize ourselves to bring more SoC project ideas, but in the end we were able to finish two students. Also last year was a bit confusing and maybe not as organized as it could have been. Mentors from other projects didn't seem to talk together and it felt a bit like a fragmented effort. This year I hope to be able to use the knowledge gained from last year to make it easier and less confusing to new mentors, and maybe have a more united OSGeo SoC experience.

=== Some words from Our students ===

Two students, Chris and Daniel, felt like sharing their SoC experience with us.

==== Chris Whitney ====

I enjoyed participating in Google Summer of Code. The project was my first experience working on a GIS software project, and definitely my first exposure to many of the open-source GIS projects. Fortunately, the Geoserver community was a very knowledgeable and friendly environment for starting my project. I was sponsored by Google to attend FOSS4G 2007, which was an exciting opportunity for me to present my project and learn more about OSGeo-related technologies.

==== Daniel Bundala ====

Here, I would like to make some comments on my experience with GRASS, Summer of Code and such. This is not very official, however, I hope that some people may find this quite useful and/or interesting.

When I applied to SoC, I had absolutely no experience with GRASS or any other GIS. Actually, my only experience with any digital maps/geography/whatever was via Google Maps. I had never had a need to use anything else before and so I had though that it is basically the only thing one may ever need. It did not take a long to realize how wrong I was...

In general, I was very satisfied with my work on GRASS; definitely, it was much better than I expected. I learnt, many new algorithm and methods that I implemented into GRASS. Also, the courses on linear algebra and calculus I have taken were quite handy at some point. Finally! Moreover, I am now more experienced and confined user of GRASS. I recall, that during the first few weeks, I did everything with mouse and worked almost solely with GUI. But at the end of the summer, I discovered the beauty and effectiveness of command line and so I run GRASS in text mode only now...

One particular event, I still remember, is that Wolf, my mentor, once sent me a paper concerning some vector generalization I worked on. This would not be a big deal if it were not in German. I really believe, that my German teacher would be proud of me as I read it and understood what was it about. Well, maybe not, as after 4 years of "intensive" study I was able to understand not even the every other word.

To sum up, I have to say, that I spent the last summer very productively. I still read GRASS mailing list almost every day. Partially, because I want to know about any possible bugs in my module, but mostly because I am still interested in the project itself. Also, it was great programming/linguistic experience and I hope I will be able to repeat it at some point in the future.

== Purpose ==

Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial
problems (as done last year at the [[Boston Code Sprint 2013]] and previous
years: [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012|Island Wood]] (2012),
[[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011),
[[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and
[[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting
members of the "C Tribe" (e.g., MapServer, QGIS, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS,
MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course,
but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.

== Venue ==

The City of Vienna MA 14 gladly provides the location for the Vienna Code Sprint for up to 60 sprinters in [http://www.wien.gv.at/stadtplan/grafik.aspx?lang=de-AT&bookmark=zHClRv95TUbsTHFEFcAeRO5RphlRnHnkur2pH4Oprw-b-b&bmadr=25723751 their very new office called STAR 22] located at Stadlauerstraße 56 (see also [http://www.openstreetmap.org/?mlat=48.22910&mlon=16.45660#map=19/48.22910/16.45660 OSM map]).

The venue is not far from the center of Vienna (~25min via train and subway) and can be reached easily from the Vienna airport via train.

'''Directions'''

Convenient route planning for public transportation: http://www.wienerlinien.at/ (both German and English)

From the airport take the train S-Bahn S7 going to Wien Floridsdorf and exit
at Praterstern (~30min). Make sure to avoid the CAT as it doesn't bring you
to Praterstern and I consider it too costly for gaining just 10 minutes.

From Praterstern take the subway U-Bahn U2 going to Seestadt and exit at
Stadlau. Now either take a 15 minutes walk to the venue or take the bus
Autobus 86A going to Breitenleer Straße/Arnikaweg or 87A going to
Hermann-Gebauer-Straße and exit at Genochplatz.

From Praterstern instead of the U2 you can also take the subway U-Bahn U1
particularly when going to the Hotel Hillinger. Take the U1 going to
Leopoldau and exit at Kagran. Now take the tram Straßenbahn 25 going to
Oberdorfstraße or the bus Autobus 26A going to Großenzersdorf and exit at
Polgarstraße for the Hotel Hillinger or continue to Konstanziagasse for the
code sprint venue.

== Dates and Times ==

== Individual Preparation ==

* Bring your own computer
* Bring [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC_power_plugs_and_sockets AC power connector adapter] if needed (Austria {{wikipedia|File:Schuko_plug_and_socket.png|CEE 7/4 (German "Schuko")(Type F)}})
* Install git, subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible

== FAQ ==

* Is the Vienna Code Sprint just a coding event?
** Yes, a coding and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?
** While this is not a presentation-oriented event like FOSS4G, there will be the possibility to have presentations. There are plans to get a dedicated room with beamer.

== Social Activities ==

=== Welcome party ===

In the evening of the first day of the sprint we will invite all sprinters to a big welcome party. More details shall not be revealed yet but we try to make it a memorable event.

=== Guided evening walk - "The City of Vienna at a glance" ===

On Wednesday evening we invite interested participants to a guided evening walk - "The City of Vienna at a glance". An on-site registration will be needed due to a limit number of 25 places.

The downtown tour introduces the imperial city, Vienna´s great history, its unique architecture, and todays life-style.

Meeting in front of St. Stephen´s Cathedral, Vienna’s main 900 years old landmark, we will stroll along Graben and Kohlmarkt, passing former court confectionary Demel and the most exclusive shops in Vienna. Crossing the courtyards of the Imperial Palace "Hofburg" you will hear about the great times of former Austrian monarchy, see where Empress Elizabeth (Sisi) married Emperor Franz Joseph, where the Vienna Boys’ Choir sings mass on Sunday, and where the famous white Lipizzaner stallions of the Spanish Riding School perform. You will enjoy the great view from Heroes Square to some of the magnificent buildings of the famous Ringstraße. We will continue walking towards State Opera and the legendary hotel Sacher and will end the tour at Albertinaplatz.

=== Skiing ===

We will leave Vienna early on Saturday to go to [http://openrouteservice.org/index.php?start=16.4564156,48.2295225&end=13.7795834,47.4114987&pref=Fastest&lang=de&noMotorways=false&noTollways=false Haus im Ennstal] for skiing. In the evening we will visit an [http://www.hauser-kaibling.at/de/events/events2014/open_air_2014.htm open air concert] and return on Sunday.

Please contact [[User:schpidi|Stephan Meissl]] if you're interested.

== Nabble ==

From variety of web forum oriented interfaces, OSGeo makes effort to provide some support for Nabble archives with help. See [[SAC:Mailing Lists]] for details.

=== Posting from Nabble ===

Dear users, this is '''a very important note''': in order to post to any of the OSGeo mailing lists through Nabble, you need to '''subscribe to selected mailing list first''' using the same e-mail address as the one you have registered in your Nabble account.

In order to subscribe, you need to go to http://lists.osgeo.org, find a mailing list of your interest and subscribe, then you will be able to post to it directly or using the Nabble interface.
Do not try to subscribe through Nabble directly. It won't work.

In case of troubles with posting through Nabble, refer to Nabble help on [http://n5.nabble.com/help/Answer.jtp?id=15 Why is my post "pending"? How to fix it?].

=== Read-Only Archives ===

There are some read-only areas of the archive at the Nabble. For example, Qgis has some old archives that are read-only:
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-user-lists-qgis-org-f4150067.html
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-developer-lists-qgis-org-f4155697.html
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-user-lists-sourceforge-net-f4164021.html

Since these areas are not meant to receive new messages, if user tries to post new message to such read-only archives a message like "This archive is read-only" will be displayed.
This has been confirmed with Nabble's team as expected behaviour.

== Nabble ==

From variety of web forum oriented interfaces, OSGeo makes effort to provide some support for Nabble archives with help. See [[SAC:Mailing Lists]] for details.

Dear users, this is '''a very important note''': in order to post to any of the OSGeo mailing lists through Nabble, you need to '''subscribe to selected mailing list first''' using the same e-mail address as the one you have registered in your Nabble account.

In order to subscribe, you need to go to http://lists.osgeo.org, find a mailing list of your interest and subscribe, then you will be able to post to it directly or using the Nabble interface.
Do not try to subscribe through Nabble directly. It won't work.

In case of troubles with posting through Nabble, refer to Nabble help on [http://n5.nabble.com/help/Answer.jtp?id=15 Why is my post "pending"? How to fix it?].

There are some read-only areas of the archive at the Nabble. For example, Qgis has some old archives that are read-only:
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-user-lists-qgis-org-f4150067.html
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-developer-lists-qgis-org-f4155697.html
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-user-lists-sourceforge-net-f4164021.html

Since these areas are not meant to receive new messages, if user tries to post new message to such read-only archives a message like "This archive is read-only" will be displayed.
This has been confirmed with Nabble's team as expected behaviour.

[http://www.wien.gv.at/english/administration/ict/index.html City of Vienna, MA 14] [[Image:Logo-City-of-Vienna.png|400px|City of Vienna MA 14|link=http://www.wien.gv.at/english/administration/ict/index.html]]

'''Other/in-kind sponsors'''

[http://eox.at EOX] [[Image:Logo-EOX.png|120px|EOX IT Services GmbH|link=http://eox.at]]

== Purpose ==

Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger geospatial
problems (as done last year at the [[Boston Code Sprint 2013]] and previous
years: [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012|Island Wood]] (2012),
[[Montreal Code Sprint 2011|Montreal]] (2011),
[[New York Code Sprint 2010|New York City]] (2010), and
[[Toronto Code Sprint 2009|Toronto]] (2009)). This code sprint is targeting
members of the "C Tribe" (e.g., MapServer, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS,
MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course,
but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.

== Venue ==

The City of Vienna MA 14 gladly provides the location for the Vienna Code Sprint for up to 30 sprinters in [http://www.wien.gv.at/stadtplan/grafik.aspx?lang=de-AT&bookmark=zHClRv95TUbsTHFEFcAeRO5RphlRnHnkur2pH4Oprw-b-b&bmadr=25723751 their very new office called STAR 22].

The venue is not far from the center of Vienna (~25min via train and subway) and can be reached easily from the Vienna airport via train.

== Dates and Times ==

March 24-28 2014

Note: March 19-21 FOSSGIS Berlin

Duration: Full week (TBD)

== Agenda ==

TBD

== Hotel ==

A hotel block is planned to be negotiated. Details will be provided here.

== Costs ==

# [[User:Mloskot|Mateusz Loskot]] - PDAL - Likely

== Individual Preparation ==

* Bring your own computer
* Install subversion and the compiler tools, and come with a working development environment if possible

== FAQ ==

* Is the Vienna Code Sprint just a coding event?
** Yes, a coding and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in open source projects.
* Will it be possible to present new projects during this event?
** No, this is not a presentation-oriented event. People will get together in small groups and work on areas of mutual interest within their projects.

== Social Activities ==

TBD

== Sponsors ==

We have three sponsorship levels:

* Gold: €1500+, Silver: €1000, Bronze: €500

We encourage sponsors (€500+) to support nutriment and entertainment for the
sprinters as they work hard and play hard for five productive days.
Contributions will be put towards lunch, snacks, and dinner costs for the
sprinters, and potentially bringing in sprinters who might otherwise be unable
to attend. Any surplus at the end of the event will be turned over to OSGeo or
used for a future code sprint.

Sponsors will receive the following honors:

* Your logo or portrait at the top of this page
* 30-min slot to talk about how you are using FOSS GIS at the sprint
* Get to stare at us during the sprint and voice your input in person
* Our undying gratitude, which comes in handy when you least expect it (Remember that feature you wanted...)

To sponsor, please contact Stephan Meissl (stephan.meissl at eox dot at) directly.

= Planet OSGeo =

[http://planet.osgeo.org/ Planet OSGeo] is a window into the world, work and lives of OSGeo members, hackers and contributors. If you are a friend of the OSGeo Foundation and would like your blog aggregated here, please read on.

== Credits ==
Planet OSGeo was implemented after the initial [http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/discuss/2008-February/003123.html discussion] was discussed on the mailing list.
OSGeo thanks Christopher Schmidt and James Fee - pioneers of building geospatial planetariums. Planet OSGeo is based on Christopher's planet, James' is here:
* [http://planetgs.com/ Planet Geospatial] maintained by James Fee aggregates wide variety of geospatial blogs

== Contact ==

You can contact the planet admins by e-mail on <tt>planet (at) osgeo (dot) org</tt> and it is administered by:

* [[Paolo Corti]]
* [[User:Mloskot|Mateusz Loskot]]
* [[Jorge Sanz]]

== Planet OSGeo Guidelines ==
Please, read the following sections where basic guidelines are explained.

=== Planet Citizens ===
* Planet is for any active and involved participant in the OSGeo Community.
* There are many ways of participating in the OSGeo, so all of types of involvement are considered for the purposes of inclusion in Planet OSGeo: our projects users and developers, speakers and advocates, translators, managers and presidents of OSGeo friendship companies and sponsors, etc.
* In order to help building the OSGeo brand and credibility, it's recommended the Planet is not formed by anonymous individuals but its members use real names. Also, [http://planet.osgeo.org/heads/ heads] are highly recommended.
* Some guidelines for acceptance or temporal/permanent ban are being discussed at [[Talk:PlanetOSGeo]]

=== Planet Content ===
* Planet OSGeo aims to aggregate the blogs of people who are active on OSGeo and not only to aggregate the blog posts about OSGeo.
* The Planet shall not do any content filter, however subscribed feeds ought to be at least occasionally relevant to OSGeo.
* All opinions expressed in syndicated blogs are of the original authors and should not be considered as official opinion of the OSGeo Foundation body.
* Planet users are free to submit "on-topic" posts by pointing specific categories/tags in their feeds. But other posts are also welcome.
* It's a good idea to stay away from advertising content (or content that might be confused as such) and from excessively personal information
* Please, don't annoy people

=== Feed Submission ===
* Feeds should provide stable permanent URL
* Broken feeds will be excluded from the Planet
* '''IMPORTANT''': Please, check your blog with http://validator.w3.org otherwise your feed may seriously break the Planet OSGeo look & feel.

== How can I add my blog ==
If you want to add your blog to the [http://planet.osgeo.org/ OSGeo Planet], send your request on ''planet at osgeo dot org''
specifying:

* your contact name
* your contact email
* blog URL
* blog feed URL (with the items you want to be displayed on Planet OSGeo)
* blog name
* primary language of your blog content
* (not mandatory but recommended) include your [http://planet.osgeo.org/heads/ head] picture of max size of '''80x80 pixels'''

If you would like to syndicate only posts that belong to a particular category of your blog, you can do it by sending URL pointing to feed of that category, something that looks like:

http://blog.myside.org/category/osgeo/feed

= Planet OSGeo Implementation =
The Planet OSGeo - a website that aggregates blogs of active ''Friends of OSGeo'' and provide a window into the community itself.

[http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/206 Ticket #206 - Planet OSGeo RFC]

Status: '''approved'''

== Planet Configuration ==
* Maintainers: [[User:Mloskot|Mateusz Loskot]]
* Domain: http://planet.osgeo.org
* Software: [http://intertwingly.net/code/venus/ Planet Venus] as recommended by [http://crschmidt.net/blog/archives/204/fed-up-with-planetgs/ Chris] and [http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/discuss/2008-February/003146.html James]
* Hardware: osgeo2

=== Update Steps ===

*Edit master configuration file

/osgeo/venus/planet_osgeo.config

*each entry should look like this:

# contact: contact@blogname.com
# added: 2011-07-14
[blog feed url]
name = blog name
link = blog url
face = head-blogname.png
facewidth = 80
faceheight = 80

*Save head image to

/osgeo/venus/themes/osgeo/heads

*Run update script as root user:

[root@planet]# python /osgeo/venus/planet.py /osgeo/venus/planet_osgeo.config
.......some errors/warnings will show here if feeds fail to download
[root@osgeo2]#

=== Troubleshooting ===
==== Stray Comments ====
The planet.py scripts are picky about formatting, a stray comment hash is enough to kill it. Confronted by this error:
<code>
...
File "/usr/local/venus/planet/config.py", line 90, in <lambda>
setattr(config, name, lambda section, default=default:
ValueError: invalid literal for int(): 40 #25
</code>
Led me to check the /usr/local/etc/planet_osgeo.config file and change the '''"items_per_page = 40 #25"''' to '''"items_per_page = 40"'''. I guess the config parser doesn't ignore comments after all :)

==== Test Scripts ====
There are two scripts that are run during planet updates, one '''spider.py''' and one '''splice.py'''. If wondering where the update process is breaking try running '''spider.py''' with the config file as a variable. Then followed by '''splice.py''' - it might help you understand where it's dying or at least if dying is related to grabbing the feed updates or not.

== Nabble ==

From variety of web forum oriented interfaces, OSGeo makes effort to provide some support for Nabble archives with help. See [[SAC:MailingLists]] for details.

Dear users, this is '''a very important note''': in order to post to any of the OSGeo mailing lists through Nabble, you need to subscribe to selected mailing list first.
You need to go to http://lists.osgeo.org, find a mailing list of your interest and subscribe, then you will be able to post to it directly or using the Nabble interface.
Do not try to subscribe through Nabble directly. It won't work.

There are some read-only areas of the archive at the Nabble. For example, Qgis has some old archives that are read-only:
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-user-lists-qgis-org-f4150067.html
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-developer-lists-qgis-org-f4155697.html
* http://osgeo-org.1560.n6.nabble.com/Old-qgis-user-lists-sourceforge-net-f4164021.html

Since these areas are not meant to receive new messages, if user tries to post new message to such read-only archives a message like "This archive is read-only" will be displayed.
This has been confirmed with Nabble's team as expected behaviour.

Boston Code Sprint 2013

2012-07-16T19:55:08Z

Wiki-Mloskot: /* Participation */

[[Image:boston_codesprint_2012.png|right]]

== Purpose ==

Get together project members to make decisions and tackle larger problems (as done last year at the [[IslandWood Code Sprint 2012]]). This code sprint is targeting members of the "C Tribe" (eg, Mapserver, GRASS, GDAL, Proj, PostGIS, MapGuide, OpenLayers). Other tribes are welcome to join the sprint, of course, but we hope that "C Tribe" members will give this event special consideration.

We have started a [[Boston Sprint 2013 Agenda]] page for preliminary planning of tasks.

== Timing ==

Dates: TBD (March 2013)
Possible options we have available
Duration: Four days (9AM - 4PM)

'''Weekday options run Monday - Thursday''': 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, 3/25

'''Weekend options run Thursday - Sunday''': 2/28, 3/7, 3/14, 3/21

== Venue ==
Downtown Boston we have 2 options going across the street from each other.
Both locations are across the street from Boston City Hall.

=== Weekend Access ===

== Sponsors ==
We have three sponsorship levels:

* Gold: >$2000
* Silver: $1500
* Bronze: $750

We will again be looking for sponsors ($750+) to support food and fun for the sprinters as they work hard and play hard for four productive days. Each sponsorship will be put towards lunch and dinner costs for the sprinters, and potentially bringing in sprinters who might otherwise be unable to attend.

To sponsor, please contact Leo Hsu and Regina Obe (lr at pcorp dot us) directly regarding sponsorship and level of sponsorship you'd like to provide

=== 2013 Sponsors ===
This is the current list of those who have pledged

WebExtraVM

2012-06-06T18:45:31Z

Wiki-Mloskot: lanet.osgeo.org */

The Web Extra VM is a Debian virtual machine administered by [[SAC]], hosted on OSGeo3 at OSU OSL and used for hosting web sites and services that are directly the responsibility of SAC and that don't fit on the other more special purpose VMs (ie. TracSVN, or Drupal). OSGeo member/project services that SAC isn't willing to take direct responsibility for likely belong on either the [[ProjectsVM]] or the [[AdhocVM]].

The VM is reachable by ssh at webextra.osgeo.osuosl.org. Anyone in the https://www.osgeo.org/cgi-bin/auth/ldap_shell.py?group=sac (SAC) list has ssh access, and anyone in this group can add new people via the link.

|''USA''
|''From: [[User:Putler | Dan Putler]] and [[Daniel Kastl]]''

We, Dan Putler and Daniel Kastl, are nominating Stephen Woodbridge to be a Charter Member of OSGeo. We have both worked with Steve as part of a project team, Daniel Kastl on pgRouting and Dan Putler on PAGC. We have both found him to be an outstanding colleague and important contributor to these projects.

Steve is one of the original, and on going, members of the Project Steering Committee of the MapServer Project. He is also a member of the Project Steering Committees of pgRouting and PAGC. In addition, he has acted for several years as a mentor to Google Summer of Code students who have worked on OSGeo Summer of Code projects.

In addition to the projects he is directly involved in, Steve has been a important contributor to the user mailing lists of several other projects. We feel his helpfulness to other participants on the PostGIS-Users mailing list is particularly noteworthy, but he is an important (and helpful) contributor to other lists as well.

Given his contributions to geospatial FOSS software and users of that software, we believe that Steve would be a worthy Charter Member of OSGeo.

|''From: [[User:Aghisla | Anne Ghisla]]''

I have the pleasure to nominate Martin Landa [0] for OSGeo charter
membership.

Martin is a PhD student at Czech Technical University in Prague,
Faculty of Civil Engineering, study program Geodesy and Cartography,
and he also teaches open source GIS and programming.
He's well known for his long time contribution to GRASS GIS and GDAL.
He participated with success to Google Summer of Code both as student
and as mentor of GRASS projects.

Among important geospatial events in Prague, he organised the first
GRASS community sprint [1] that was a great success!

I believe Martin's experience and contributions make him a valuable
candidate for charter membership.

|''Spain''
|''From: [[User:Shiguera | Santiago Higuera]]''

I would like to nominate Lluis Vicens [1], as a candidate in the
forthcoming Charter Member election of OSGeo.

Lluis' strong commitment and the importance of his contributions to de
development and promotion of FOSS4G are well known. Some of his "merits" are:

1) Member of the SIGTE [2] project team (Girona University GIS and remote
sensing service). There is a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between OSGeo
and SIGTE [3] since September 2011.

2) Coordinator and organizer of the "Jornadas de SIG Libre" (Libre GIS days),
which are held every year since 2007 at the University of Girona [4]. The
'Jornadas de GIS Libre' of Girona is one of the most important annual
international FOSS4G events and the most important Spanish FOSS4G one.

3) Lluis tutors some of the modules of the prestigious UNIGIS courses
organized by the University of Girona every year since 1999 [5] and
teaches FOSS4G courses at the international University of Girona Summer
School, and also through "FormaSIG, the free GIS Learning Platform" [7].

4) He is one of the founders and one of the most active members of OSGeo-es, the Spanish-speaking
local chapter of OSGeo.

Therefore, I think that promoting Lluis up to a OSGeo charter membership role
would be of worth to the OSGeo community.

|''Bob Basques''
|''USA''
|''From: [[Steve Lime]]''

I’m pleased to have the opportunity to nominate Bob Basques as an OSGeo charter member. Bob works for the City of St. Paul and has long been a user and advocate of free and open source software and data. He is the founder of the GeoMOOSE project (http://geomoose.org/) an increasingly popular client environment that leverages other projects such as MapServer and Open Layers.

Bob has been a frequent contributor in local (Twin Cities MapServer Group), state (MN GIS/LIS) and global (FOSS4G) events, doing presentations and delivering workshops.

Most importantly, Bob’s an idea guy, someone that every organization needs. He is always thinking of new ways to use FOSS software and data to solve day-to-day business needs. Those ideas have had an impact not only the software he has developed, but also the software he makes use of. I’m grateful for his input over the years.

In short, I think Bob would be value addition to the OSGeo charter membership ranks.

He is best known as the developer of PyWPS showing great performance at the Denver FOSS4G WPS shootout
http://www.slideshare.net/jgarnett/wps-shootout

In addition to his impressive development work,
he has been active particiapnt at open source geospatial meetings, conferences
and code sprints including FOSS4G, leading workshops and tutorials, giving presentations
and participating in the shootout.

He works for Help Service Remote Sensing which has been implementing geospatial services using
Open source geospatial technology in Central Europe.
He has extensive Web GIS experience building Applications using UMN MapServer,
GeoServer, GRASS GIS, ExtJS, OpenLayers, PyWPS, an others.

His experience, enthusiasm and activism make him a great candidate for the OSGeo charter member.
And we still don't have anybody from the Czech republic which has a very active open source
geospatial community.

|''[[User:Woodbri | Stephen Woodbridge]]''
|''USA''
|''From: [[User:Putler | Dan Putler]] and [[Daniel Kastl]]''

We, Dan Putler and Daniel Kastl, are nominating Stephen Woodbridge to be a Charter Member of OSGeo. We have both worked with Steve as part of a project team, Daniel Kastl on pgRouting and Dan Putler on PAGC. We have both found him to be an outstanding colleague and important contributor to these projects.

Steve is one of the original, and on going, members of the Project Steering Committee of the MapServer Project. He is also a member of the Project Steering Committees of pgRouting and PAGC. In addition, he has acted for several years as a mentor to Google Summer of Code students who have worked on OSGeo Summer of Code projects.

In addition to the projects he is directly involved in, Steve has been a important contributor to the user mailing lists of several other projects. We feel his helpfulness to other participants on the PostGIS-Users mailing list is particularly noteworthy, but he is an important (and helpful) contributor to other lists as well.

Given his contributions to geospatial FOSS software and users of that software, we believe that Steve would be a worthy Charter Member of OSGeo.

|''Argentina''
|''From: [[Mauricio Miranda]]''

I would like to nominate Gabriel Roldán.

Gabriel is core developer for Geosever and Geotools and has been involved in FOSS4G since 2003 (or even before).

He also has collaborated with gvSIG and some other projects.

I really think he is one of the most important FOSS4G developers from the spanish-speaking community.

|''Czech Republic''
|''From: [[User:Aghisla | Anne Ghisla]]''

I have the pleasure to nominate Martin Landa [0] for OSGeo charter
membership.

Martin is a PhD student at Czech Technical University in Prague,
Faculty of Civil Engineering, study program Geodesy and Cartography,
and he also teaches open source GIS and programming.
He's well known for his long time contribution to GRASS GIS and GDAL.
He participated with success to Google Summer of Code both as student
and as mentor of GRASS projects.

Among important geospatial events in Prague, he organised the first
GRASS community sprint [1] that was a great success!

I believe Martin's experience and contributions make him a valuable
candidate for charter membership.

|''[[User:Lluís | Lluís Vicens]]''
|''Spain''
|''From: [[User:Shiguera | Santiago Higuera]]''

I would like to nominate Lluis Vicens [1], as a candidate in the
forthcoming Charter Member election of OSGeo.

Lluis' strong commitment and the importance of his contributions to de
development and promotion of FOSS4G are well known. Some of his "merits" are:

1) Member of the SIGTE [2] project team (Girona University GIS and remote
sensing service). There is a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between OSGeo
and SIGTE [3] since September 2011.

2) Coordinator and organizer of the "Jornadas de SIG Libre" (Libre GIS days),
which are held every year since 2007 at the University of Girona [4]. The
'Jornadas de GIS Libre' of Girona is one of the most important annual
international FOSS4G events and the most important Spanish FOSS4G one.

3) Lluis tutors some of the modules of the prestigious UNIGIS courses
organized by the University of Girona every year since 1999 [5] and
teaches FOSS4G courses at the international University of Girona Summer
School, and also through "FormaSIG, the free GIS Learning Platform" [7].

4) He is one of the founders and one of the most active members of OSGeo-es, the Spanish-speaking
local chapter of OSGeo.

Therefore, I think that promoting Lluis up to a OSGeo charter membership role
would be of worth to the OSGeo community.

|''[[User:EliL|Eli Adam]]''
|''USA''
|''From: [[User:percyd|David Percy]] ''

I'd like to nominate Eli Adam to be a charter member. Eli has been
active in the OSGEO in many ways, including the Journal, Marketing,
and a few others that I wasn't even aware of until recently.

He has been absolutely instrumental in getting our local chapter,
PDX-OSGEO (Oregon, SW-Washington area) into incubation status at
OSGEO, and generally plays a leadership role.

He also actively participates in several open source gis projects, and
works for municipal government bringing open source solutions as often
as possible/practical.

|''From: Arnulf Christl''
[http://www.gis-management.de/ Dr. Behr] teaches FOSS for gesopatial software and geodata (obviously including OpenStreetMap) since he started to as [http://geoweb.hft-stuttgart.de/ professor of Geoinformatics] 9 years ago.

He is founder of the [http://easywms.com/ SUAD MapServer project], http://opencts.org and http://opengeocoding.org.

He is current president of the [http://www.applied-geoinformatics.org/ AGSE conferences] which includes a dedicated Open Source geospatial track. AGSE is an interdisciplinary, international forum for sharing knowledge about the application of Geoinformatics with focus on application and on developing countries. This year it took place from 15. - 19. August in Nairobi, Kenya.

Dr. Behr will be a valuable member of the OSGeo Charter from the academic world with a functioning Open Source environment for education and strong ties in the developing world.

|''Bob Basques''
|''USA''
|''From: [[Steve Lime]]''

I’m pleased to have the opportunity to nominate Bob Basques as an OSGeo charter member. Bob works for the City of St. Paul and has long been a user and advocate of free and open source software and data. He is the founder of the GeoMOOSE project (http://geomoose.org/) an increasingly popular client environment that leverages other projects such as MapServer and Open Layers.

Bob has been a frequent contributor in local (Twin Cities MapServer Group), state (MN GIS/LIS) and global (FOSS4G) events, doing presentations and delivering workshops.

Most importantly, Bob’s an idea guy, someone that every organization needs. He is always thinking of new ways to use FOSS software and data to solve day-to-day business needs. Those ideas have had an impact not only the software he has developed, but also the software he makes use of. I’m grateful for his input over the years.

In short, I think Bob would be value addition to the OSGeo charter membership ranks.
