February XX, 2006--The open source geospatial community today announced the formation of the [http://www.osgeo.org Open Source Geospatial Foundation], a not-for-profit organization whose mission is to support and promote the collaborative development of open geospatial technologies and data. The foundation was formed earlier this month to provide financial, organizational and legal support to the broader open source geospatial community. It will also serve as an independent legal entity to which community members can contribute code, funding and other resources, secure in the knowledge that their contributions will be maintained for public benefit.
 
 
On February 4th, OSGEO held its first meeting in Chicago with 25 participants representing 18 groups and over 20 different open source geospatial projects, and 39 other parties participating via Internet Relay Chat.  At this meeting, the participants took important steps in forming and organizing a foundation to develop and support open source geospatial technologies, including defining the foundation’s name, structure and vision.  The consensus reached at the Chicago meeting paves the way to establish a productive, inclusive foundation.

The Chicago meeting also resulted in the appointment of an initial board of directors which will be responsible for the drafting and execution of the foundation's charter and bylaws. The initial five directors come from North America and Europe and represent various open source projects and technologies. The initial five directors of OSGEO are:

The foundation expects to appoint four additional directors within the next several weeks to serve as the full interim board until the next annual meeting of the foundation membership.
 
 
 
 
 
OSGEO draws governance inspiration from several aspects of the [http://www.apache.org/ Apache Foundation], including a membership  composed of individuals drawn from foundation projects who are selected for membership status based on their active contribution to foundation projects and governance. The initial membership consists of the five initial board members plus 16 other participants who attended the Chicago organizational meeting. The foundation is seeking to add an additional 24 members from the broader open source geospatial community through a public nomination process over the next several weeks.

Initial OSGEO projects are [http://www.mapbender.org Mapbender], [http://mapbuilder.sourceforge.net/ MapBuilder], [http://www.osgeo.org/mapguide/ MapGuide], [http://www.gdal.org/ GDAL/OGR], [http://grass.itc.it/ GRASS], and [http://www.ossim.org/ OSSIM]. Several other projects such as [http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/ MapServer] and [http://www.geotools.org/ GeoTools] are currently discussing within their communities whether to join.
 
 
 
 
 
The foundation will not require that OSGEO software projects to be licensed under any one particular open source license, but will require that all OSGEO software be released under an open source license approved by the [http://www.opensource.org Open Source Initiative (OSI)]. The long term goal is to encourage licenses that allow the different foundation projects to work better together and permit for code exchange among them. The foundation will implement contribution and intellectual property policies designed to avoid the inclusion of proprietary or patented code in OSGEO projects. Foundation projects are focused on interoperability – both with one another at the library level, and with other proprietary and open source projects through the use of open standards.

Press release

Open Source Geospatial Foundation

w tłumaczeniu

Zrzeszenie projektów GISowych i mapowych prowadzonych przez współnotę


Open Source Geospatial Foundation zostało zainicjowane aby pomagać i tworzyć wysoko jakościowe open source oprogramowanie do celów geograficznych. Celem fundacji jest protekcja rozwoju i użytku projektów opracowanych przez wspólnotę. Czwartego lutego 2006 w ciągu spotkania w Chicago, USA zostały określone wizja i struktura.

Jednym z wyników otóż tego zlotu jest wyznaczenie rady zarządu. Pieciu menażerów różnych projektóe zostało wybranych z dłuższej listy, pochodzących z Ameryki pólnocnej i Europy. Wybrani reprezentują zróżnicowane wspólnoty i technologie (C, C++, Java, PHP, Python, Javascript, etc.):

  • Arnulf Christl - Mapbender, CCGIS, Niemcy;
  • Chris Holmes - GeoServer/GeoTools, The Open Planning Project, USA;
  • Gary Lang - MapGuide, Autodesk, USA;
  • Markus Neteler - GRASS, Istituto Trentino Di Cultura, Włochy;
  • Frank Warmerdam - GDAL/OGR, Kanada.

Pierwsza część zarządu zostanie poszerzona przez czterech dalszych członków, następnie wybranych przez wspólnotę. Fundacja OSGEO jest porównywalnie ustosunkowana jak Apache Foundation, która zajmuję się rozwojem oprogramowania i intersami programistów, jak i użytkowników.

OSGEO draws governance inspiration from several aspects of the Apache Foundation, including a membership composed of individuals drawn from foundation projects. The initial membership consists of the five board members plus 16 other participants who attended the meeting. The target of 45 members is being established through a public nomination process from the wider open source geospatial community. Each nominated person shall be recognized due to her/his contribution in terms of software, documentation, translation or other. From the list of nominations, 24 members will be elected by the current members.

Die OSGeo Foundation ist in ihrer Ausrichtung vergleichbar mit der Apache Software Foundation, die sich um die Entwicklung der Software, aber auch um die Belange der Entwickler und der Anwenderschaft kümmert. Die zentralen Aufgaben der OSGeo liegen in der Förderung der Kooperation zwischen den einzelnen Projekten, der Schaffung einer rechtlichen Vertretung für Entwickler und Anwender, der Bereitstellung gemeinsam genutzter Infrastruktur sowie, nicht zuletzt, im Aufbau einer professionellen Vertretung der Open Source Bewegung. Die Foundation wird im ersten Jahr von Autodesk mit 250.000 US$ unterstützt.

The foundation will only accept projects released under Open Source licenses certified by the Open Source Initiative (OSI). The long term goal is to encourage licenses that allow the different projects to work better together and permit for code exchange among the foundation projects. Means of avoiding the inclusion of proprietary or patented code will be established. Foundation projects are focused on interoperability, with one another at the library level, and with other proprietary and open source projects through the use of open standards.

While an initial set of projects was proposed as founding projects, several projects such as MapServer and GeoTools are currently seeking for a decision within their communities weather to join. Initial OSGF projects are Mapbender, MapBuilder, MapGuide, GDAL/OGR, GRASS, and OSSIM.

The foundation will also be pursuing goals beyond software development, such as promoting more open access to government produced spatial data. Access under reasonable conditions to geospatial data is a major problem outside of Northern America.

Thanks to the use of Internet Relay Chat (IRC) during the meeting, discussions were open to peers outside of the meeting room. The consensus reached at the Chicago meeting paves the way to establish a powerful, inclusive foundation.
