This page contains the agenda of the GRASS Project Steering Commitee.
Open 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 GRASS GIS videos on YouTube - make it a channel?
- Get in more http://grass.osgeo.org/donations/ - approach potential sponsors
- 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.
- Find one or more persons to take care of Case studies.
- Moritz Lennert suggests: have some reflection on release strategy and notably grass7 release. Maybe we could at least envisage some form of technology preview release that would allow us to where we stand.
- Make use of flattr.com or other crowdfunding options (comparison)
- CMS: add user quotes on first page why people use GRASS?
Motions
These entries need a vote from the committee members.
- RFC3: http://grass.osgeo.org/programming6/rfc3_psc.html (rewrite needed)
Discussions
These entries do not need a formal vote.
- License issues of translation support through Rosetta - alternatively consider pootle (maybe on OSGeo infrastructure)
Resolved issues
- PSC election 2012
- RFC1: Project Steering Committee Guidelines
- RFC2: Legal aspects of code contributions
Motions
Discussions
- GRASS on koders.com: recommendation to do so. Now available here
- 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 Terms of use of Rosetta
