Tentang Proyek GRASS

Kebebasan

Proyek GRASS GIS dikembangkan di bawah semboyan GNU General Public License (the GPL) dalam nuansa pengembangan yang terbuka oleh sukarelawan di seluruh dunia.

Berbeda dengan perangkat lunak SIG lainnya yang biasa digunakan oleh profesional di dunia, GRASS dikembangkan dan disebarluaskan oleh pengguna untuk pengguna; hampir semuanya bersifat sukarela, bersifat terbuka dan diberikan secara cuma-cuma.

GRASS dikembangkan dengan penekanan lebih pada interoperabilitas dan akses tak terbatas pada data, juga pada fleksibilitas perangkat lunak dan laju evolusinya (keduanya ditambahkan pada fitur dan minimalisasi kesalahan (bug))

Bagaimana mendapatkan bantuan?

Milis

• The primary point of contact for GRASS user help and development coordination is on the mailing lists. The answers to many questions you may have will probably already have been addressed and will be waiting for you in the mailing list archives.

• Because the mailing lists are so critical to the project's success, and support comes entirely from time-strapped volunteers and colleagues, we request some mailing list etiquette be followed.

IRC communication

IRC is live Internet Relay Chat. The GRASS project maintains a "chatroom" and if you are lucky there may be someone logged on who can give you a quick answer.

• How to participate in IRC communication (#grass, #osgeo, #gdal, #qgis, #mapserver and other channels)

Documentation

• You've already discovered the wiki. Go forth and explore!
