Following the FOSS4G EU 2015 , 14-17 July 2014, Como, Italy, the GRASS GIS project will hold a GRASS Developer and Power User Meeting, aka 'GRASS Community Sprint' from July 19 to July 22, 2015 (dates are not official yet, just proposed).

Important dates:

  • 14 (Tuesday) - 17 (Friday) July 2015: FOSS4G EU 2015 conference
  • 18 (Saturday) July 2015: FOSS4G EU 2015 code sprint and first day of GRASS Community Sprint
  • 19 (Sunday) - 22 (Wednesday) July 2015 (TBD): GRASS Community Sprint

Purpose

Get together of GRASS GIS project members to take decisions and tackle small and larger problems.

For this meeting, we welcome people committed to improving the GRASS GIS project. This includes developers, documenters, bug reporters, translators, and users!

Impressions from the GRASS GIS Community Sprint 2015: Como, Italy

Sponsors

If you are interested to sponsor the GRASS Community Sprint, please read about
    sponsoring the GRASS project at http://grass.osgeo.org/donations/
and, if needed, contact Markus Neteler <neteler at osgeo.org>. Any surplus at the end of the event will be turned over to the GRASS GIS project.

The GRASS Community Sprint is a great occasion for you to support the development of GRASS. With your contribution you'll enable more developers to meet in Prague. The community sprint is an important opportunity for the GRASS developers to discuss and collaboratively resolve bugs, plan the direction for the project and work on new features. Please see below for the more detailed agenda. The developers and contributors are donating their valuable time, so it would be great if in-kind funding can be made available from within the community to cover out-of-pocket expenses. All of the work that takes place at the community sprint will be directly contributed back into the GRASS project to the benefit of everyone who uses it.

We have to remember to take at least one group photo! :-)

FAQ

  • Is the GRASS Community Sprint just a coding event?
    • It is mainly a coding and documentation event. It is a working session for people who are already participants in the GRASS project and/or are committed to improving the GRASS project.
    • On demand we can do some presentations of current working GRASS implementation and new upcoming features to spread the idea of Open Source GIS software
  • Is the GRASS Community Sprint for developers only?
    • No: anybody can help, with testing, checking out bugs and fixes, documentation and more.
  • Where can I get help and more information about the community sprint?
