Lowongan pekerjaan di proyek GRASS

Infrastruktur yang terus berkembang dan penambahan dukungan pengguna membutuhkan beberapa usaha untuk mengintegrasikan kontribusi dari pengguna dan agar tetap dapat menjaga segala sesuatunya berjalan dengan lancar. Halaman ini berisi tentang daftar pekerjaan yang membutuhkan sukarelawan. Deskripsi pekerjaan-pekerjaan ini mungkin terlihat sedikit formal tetapi dapat menggambarkan kebutuhannya.

Kontributor Web site (lowong)

Dibutuhkan beberapa orang sebagai kontributor Web site untuk melakukan perbaruan halaman dan meningkatkan struktur yang ada saat ini. Kami berharap bahwa di masa datang, website akan dipindahkan ke dalam sebuah sistem CMS seperti Drupal, yang tentunya membutuhkan usaha yang besar. Wolf Bergenheim saat ini bekerja dalam persiapan sebuah server berbasis Drupal untuk GRASS di OSGeo.

Keterampilan yang diperlukan:

  • pemahaman tentang HTML standar (sebuah fungsi PHP tunggal akan digunakan untuk membuat menu)
  • keinginan untuk menggunakan editor teks untuk membuat halaman (untuk menghindari HTML cruft creeps in)
  • terbiasa dengan (atau memiliki keinginan untuk belajar menggunakan) GRASS Web site CVS (lihat instruksi)
  • tidak dibutuhkan kemampuan pemrograman

Tugas:

  • memperbaharui halaman-halaman yang sudah kadaluarsa
  • memikirkan dan mengimplementasikan "user stories" untuk membuat situs semakin atraktif
  • memikirkan dan mengimplementasikan translasi dari halaman-halaman yang penting
  • menyederhanakan struktur
  • menambahkan skrinsut baru dengan credits/CC license)
  • melakukan pemeriksaan secara rutin apakah situs mirror berfungsi atau tidak

Perkiraan beban kerja:

  • rata-rata: 1-x jam per minggu

Kontak: Markus Neteler

Public relations manager

NEWS: Kindly accepted by Malte Halbey-Martin

Despite the continuous growth of the user community, we seek "GRASS GIS awareness" especially for public administration and companies. A multi-language brochure is needed to promote GRASS in a more effective way. Funding for a high quality print is to be defined.

Interested people

While we have to figure out the process, here a list of interested people. Please add yourself:

  • Dylan Beaudette: Web site contributor (familiar with Drupal CMS)
