	~~''This page contains the agenda of the [[PSC~~ \| ~~GRASS Project Steering Commitee]].''~~		{{MovedToTrac\|PSC/Agenda}}

	~~=== Open issues ===~~

	* PSC~~: assign roles to the members~~
	* Financial management: set up a non-profit entity
	** Get in more http://grass.osgeo.org/donations/ - approach potential sponsors, develop sponsoring program
	** Make use of flattr.com or other '''crowdfunding''' options (some [http://mail-pilot.com/blog/comparing-crowd-sourced-funding-platforms/ comparison])
	* Find one or more persons to take care of [[Case studies]].
	* CMS: add user quotes on first page why people use GRASS? Refresh start page

	~~==== Motions ====~~

	~~''These entries need a vote from the committee members.''~~

	* RFC3: http:/~~/grass.osgeo.org/programming7/rfc3_psc.html (rewrite needed)~~

	~~==== Discussions ====~~

	~~''These entries do not need a formal vote.''~~

	* License issues of translation support through [https://launchpad.net/products/grass6 Rosetta] - alternatively consider [http://pootle.wordforge.org/ pootle] (maybe on OSGeo infrastructure)
	* discuss use of transifex for some languages

	~~---------------~~

	~~=== Resolved issues ===~~

	* GRASS GIS - '''30th birthday upcoming'''! MN is in contact with Jim Westervelt to identify the "precise" date. So we want to celebrate that all over the globe :) And on other planets, too, since we support extraterrestrial coordinate systems.
	** Prepare new promo material. Best would be to get designer(s) for it.
	** Better populate the [http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=grass+gis GRASS GIS videos on YouTube] - make it a channel?
	* Revisit the '''license of the Web pages''' and manual pages. It may be appropriate to change to a Creative Commons license which are widely accepted now.
	* Moritz Lennert suggests: have some reflection on release strategy and notably '''GRASS 7 release'''. Maybe we could at least envisage some form of technology preview release that would allow us to where we stand.
	* [[PSC election 2012]]
	* [http://grass.osgeo.org/programming6/rfc1_psc.html RFC1: Project Steering Committee Guidelines]
	* [http://grass.osgeo.org/programming6/rfc2_psc.html RFC2: Legal aspects of code contributions]

	~~==== Motions ====~~

	* [http://grass.osgeo.org/programming7/psc_motions.html PSC Motions]

	~~==== Discussions ====~~
	~~<strike>~~
	* GRASS on koders.com: recommendation to do so. Now available [http://www.koders.com/info.aspx?c=ProjectInfo&pid=43B43LPYNXCC4K8PGELQYTZR5A here]
	~~</strike>~~

	* Add GRASS to Canonical's Rosetta translation project?
	: Unresolved issue: a translation is a derivative and non-original work, and Canonical demands BSD-style copyright assignment of translations submitted through them (but not translations coming from the project). Could a translation back to english from one of those be a end-run around our copyright and the GPL?
	~~:: Update 2007: It appears that Canonical changed their [https://launchpad.net/legal Terms of use] of Rosetta~~
