* have been working on developing a workflow-tool tutorial template that facilitates GRASS learners who tend to 'jump in' or have a 'choose your own adventure' approach to learning GRASS (i.e., want to use their data for their study area for their objective from the start).  The structure of the tutorial template is a concise, basic, general description/instructions of the workflow with optional links to pertinent explanatory/deeper dive content  (e.g.,  plain language explainers of the tool, options, defaults, etc.) in a variety of formats (e.g., captioned images, short tool demo videos (30 sec to 2 min)) in addition to the more comprehensive resources available (e.g. documentation, examples, tutorials).  The main motivation for this approach is to help new and occasional GRASS users avoid some of the common pitfalls and to learn how to find workarounds for some of the unanticipated challenges they may encounter with their specific datasets or use cases so that they can learn as they go.  Another motivation for this approach is to facilitate the translation, extension, and updating of workflow tutorials by the community over time (e.g., providing audio and closed captioning for one of the tool-demo videos in another language, replacing an outdated GUI demo with one for the current release, or incorporating a new add-on as an option in the workflow).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* my focus this week is on developing a draft/test tutorial (in Quarto) for a standard hydrological modelling workflow that begins with the crucial pre-work of how to figure out the appropriate project/location, etc. as well as considerations of some of the downstream impacts of resolution, extent, region etc. It may not be ready for sharing by the end of the week, but suggestions and advice are welcomed in advance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
19 May&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* Quick ideas, way too much for a week: Helping others (may take a reasonable part of the time), managing CI, setting up localization template updating workflow, backporting tool? Pytest/coverage improvements? Discuss and design other projects, to work on during the year. Open to change on other priorities once there, anything that is useful. Maybe make a little progress on high dpi GUI, especially on Windows.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

* Tutorial for Windows users to install a WSL2 Linux environment. Creates a conda environment with wxpython, installs GRASS without requiring OSGeo installer. Fast, simple, and minimal install. Resolves various issues encountered in government due to automatic Windows updates, cyber security, vpn routing, user preference, and isolated distro can be completely removed if needed. -&amp;gt; Motivation for WSL2 - wanted more hands-on practice with Unix command line tools for HPC; Docker not allowed, but miniforge and Apptainer are on ERDC's HPC; able to install grass via command line (only on internet-capable HPC systems); AND - For other users that always wanted a more native feel to their grass instance!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* have been working on developing a workflow-tool tutorial template that facilitates GRASS learners who tend to 'jump in' or have a 'choose your own adventure' approach to learning GRASS (i.e., want to use their data for their study area for their objective from the start).  The structure of the tutorial template is a concise, basic, general description/instructions of the workflow with optional links to pertinent explanatory/deeper dive content  (e.g.,  plain language explainers of the tool, options, defaults, etc.) in a variety of formats (e.g., captioned images, short tool demo videos (30 sec to 2 min)) in addition to the more comprehensive resources available (e.g. documentation, examples, tutorials).  The main motivation for this approach is to help new and occasional GRASS users avoid some of the common pitfalls and to learn how to find workarounds for some of the unanticipated challenges they may encounter with their specific datasets or use cases so that they can learn as they go.  Another motivation for this approach is to facilitate the translation, extension, and updating of workflow tutorials by the community over time (e.g., providing audio and closed captioning for one of the tool-demo videos in another language, replacing an outdated GUI demo with one for the current release, or incorporating a new add-on as an option in the workflow).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* my focus this week is on developing a draft/test tutorial (in Quarto) for a standard hydrological modelling workflow that begins with the crucial pre-work of how to figure out the appropriate project/location, etc. as well as considerations of some of the downstream impacts of resolution, extent, region etc. It may not be ready for sharing by the end of the week, but suggestions and advice are welcomed in advance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
19 May&lt;br /&gt;

=== Edouard Choinière ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Quick ideas, way too much for a week: Helping others (may take a reasonable part of the time), managing CI, setting up localization template updating workflow, backporting tool? Pytest/coverage improvements? Discuss and design other projects, to work on during the year. Open to change on other priorities once there, anything that is useful. Maybe make a little progress on high dpi GUI, especially on Windows.&lt;br /&gt;

* have been working on developing a workflow-tool tutorial template that facilitates GRASS learners who tend to 'jump in' or have a 'choose your own adventure' approach to learning GRASS (i.e., want to use their data for their study area for their objective from the start).  The structure of the tutorial template is a concise, basic, general description/instructions of the workflow with optional links to pertinent explanatory/deeper dive content  (e.g.,  plain language explainers of the tool, options, defaults, etc.) in a variety of formats (e.g., captioned images, short tool demo videos (30 sec to 2 min)) in addition to the more comprehensive resources available (e.g. documentation, examples, tutorials).  The main motivation for this approach is to help new and occasional GRASS users avoid some of the common pitfalls and to learn how to find workarounds for some of the unanticipated challenges they may encounter with their specific datasets or use cases so that they can learn as they go.  Another motivation for this approach is to facilitate the translation, extension, and updating of workflow tutorials by the community over time (e.g., providing audio and closed captioning for one of the tool-demo videos in another language, replacing an outdated GUI demo with one for the current release, or incorporating a new add-on as an option in the workflow).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* my focus this week is on developing a draft/test tutorial (in Quarto) for a standard hydrological modelling workflow that begins with the crucial pre-work of how to figure out the appropriate project/location, etc. as well as considerations of some of the downstream impacts of resolution, extent, region etc. It may not be ready for sharing by the end of the week, but suggestions and advice are welcomed in advance.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
19 May&lt;br /&gt;
* discussed a novice user issue with 'moving' vector data from one location to another with Vero and learned a neat GUI option &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* Quick ideas, way too much for a week: Helping others (may take a reasonable part of the time), managing CI, setting up localization template updating workflow, backporting tool? Pytest/coverage improvements? Discuss and design other projects, to work on during the year. Open to change on other priorities once there, anything that is useful. Maybe make a little progress on high dpi GUI, especially on Windows.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Weekend before sprint:&lt;br /&gt;
** Clear up Renovate PRs to not use CI time during the sprint, reviewing and merging: [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5664 #5664], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5665 #5665], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5666 #5666], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5667 #5667], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5668 #5668]&lt;br /&gt;
** PR to avoid some CI run time for the sprint: [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5670 #5670]&lt;br /&gt;
** Reviewed open PRs for PRs that were mergeable before the sprint, updated outdated PRs to avoid having it needing CI time during sprint. Only ended up merging [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5658 #5658], but another reviewed one that might still need changes: [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5628 #5628]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* Plan: &lt;br /&gt;
** Review of temporal tutorials to push them to tutorials&lt;br /&gt;
** Sync branding between GRASS and tutorials websites&lt;br /&gt;
** GRASS project admin stuff &lt;br /&gt;
** Understand new docs contribution and building workflow&lt;br /&gt;
** Interface with R&lt;br /&gt;
* [https://github.com/veroandreo?tab=overview&amp;amp;from=2025-05-12&amp;amp;to=2025-05-24 GitHub contributions]&lt;br /&gt;
* Website footer enhancement&lt;br /&gt;

* Fix GRASS page on OSGeo website [https://www.osgeo.org/projects/grass-gis/] &lt;br /&gt;
** Changed logo, removed GIS from the name, fixed old links&lt;br /&gt;
* Social media post&lt;br /&gt;

* POSE related activities&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Laura Belica | NC State University ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* have been working on developing a workflow-tool tutorial template that facilitates GRASS learners who tend to 'jump in' or have a 'choose your own adventure' approach to learning GRASS (i.e., want to use their data for their study area for their objective from the start).  The structure of the tutorial template is a concise, basic, general description/instructions of the workflow with optional links to pertinent explanatory/deeper dive content  (e.g.,  plain language explainers of the tool, options, defaults, etc.) in a variety of formats (e.g., captioned images, short tool demo videos (30 sec to 2 min)) in addition to the more comprehensive resources available (e.g. documentation, examples, tutorials).  The main motivation for this approach is to help new and occasional GRASS users avoid some of the common pitfalls and to learn how to find workarounds for some of the unanticipated challenges they may encounter with their specific datasets or use cases so that they can learn as they go.  Another motivation for this approach is to facilitate the translation, extension, and updating of workflow tutorials by the community over time (e.g., providing audio and closed captioning for one of the tool-demo videos in another language, replacing an outdated GUI demo with one for the current release, or incorporating a new add-on as an option in the workflow).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* my focus this week is on developing a draft/test tutorial (in Quarto) for a standard hydrological modelling workflow that begins with the crucial pre-work of how to figure out the appropriate project/location, etc. as well as considerations of some of the downstream impacts of resolution, extent, region etc. It may not be ready for sharing by the end of the week, but suggestions and advice are welcomed in advance.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* Quick ideas, way too much for a week: Helping others (may take a reasonable part of the time), managing CI, setting up localization template updating workflow, backporting tool? Pytest/coverage improvements? Discuss and design other projects, to work on during the year. Open to change on other priorities once there, anything that is useful. Maybe make a little progress on high dpi GUI, especially on Windows.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Weekend before sprint:&lt;br /&gt;
** Clear up Renovate PRs to not use CI time during the sprint, reviewing and merging: [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5664 #5664], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5665 #5665], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5666 #5666], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5667 #5667], [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5668 #5668]&lt;br /&gt;
** PR to avoid some CI run time for the sprint: [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5670 #5670]&lt;br /&gt;
** Reviewed open PRs for PRs that were mergeable before the sprint, updated outdated PRs to avoid having it needing CI time during sprint. Only ended up merging [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5658 #5658], but another reviewed one that might still need changes: [https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/pull/5628 #5628]&lt;br /&gt;

== Purpose ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The purpose of this in-person Developer Summit is to identify challenges in the adoption of GRASS GIS as a geoprocessing engine and to foster the growth of the contributor community by connecting new and experienced developers. Attendees will contribute their unique skills to GRASS GIS, evaluate the progress of the project, and participate in long-term planning for GRASS GIS. The goal of the event is to generate actionable feedback for future improvements and to prepare the ground for expanding the geoprocessing capabilities of GRASS GIS.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Agenda ==&lt;br /&gt;

Each day will consist of a block of scheduled sessions (tentative topics below), a block of self-organized sessions (determined by the participants and organizers), two business meals (lunch and dinner), and time for individual contributions to the project.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Day 1: Identification of priorities for each group of participants (introductions, group discussions and presentations), New contributor on-boarding&lt;br /&gt;
* Day 2: Interfacing with QGIS (gathering of user feedback, testing, discussion with developers, development of action items)&lt;br /&gt;
* Day 3: Interfacing with R (gathering of user feedback, testing, discussion with developers, development of action items)&lt;br /&gt;
* Day 4: Translations to natural languages and internationalization (procedures, glossaries, code adjustments, translating)&lt;br /&gt;
* Day 5: Building community for GRASS GIS geoprocessing engine (missing features, documentation, user groups)&lt;br /&gt;
* Day 6: NSF POSE project evaluation and community feedback, Plotting project course for next years&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
* ''How these events look like?''&lt;br /&gt;
** See [[GRASS Community Meeting Prague 2024]] and [[GRASS Community Meeting Prague 2023]] for last two events which were both great!&lt;br /&gt;
* ''Is the meeting focused on coding?''&lt;br /&gt;
** The focus is contributing to the project. The project is build on contributions in the form of code, documentation, translations, promotion and more. &lt;br /&gt;
* ''Is the meeting for developers only?''&lt;br /&gt;
** No, anybody can help, with testing, checking out bugs and fixes, documentation and more. The goal is to develop GRASS GIS and make it easier to develop workflows and software on top of GRASS GIS. &lt;br /&gt;
* ''Do I have to be a contributor to come?''&lt;br /&gt;
** You don't make contributions prior to the meeting, but the goal is to improve the project, so we ask that you discuss and plan your contributions before coming to the meeting. If you are a committed newcomer, contact us and we will gladly find a way for you to meaningfully contribute.&lt;br /&gt;

* ''Is the meeting focused on coding?''&lt;br /&gt;
** The focus is contributing to the project. The project is build on contributions in the form of code, documentation, translations, promotion and more. &lt;br /&gt;
* ''Is the meeting for developers only?''&lt;br /&gt;
** No, anybody can help, with testing, checking out bugs and fixes, documentation and more. The goal is to develop GRASS GIS and make it easier to develop workflows and software on top of GRASS GIS. &lt;br /&gt;
* ''Do I have to be a contributor to come?''&lt;br /&gt;
** You don't make contributions prior to the meeting, but the goal is to improve the project, so we ask that you discuss and plan your contributions before coming to the meeting.
