== tl;dr==
 I'm a geo geek developer
== Long stuff==
I'm and old-school-formed hacker dedicated to web development. 
Mainly javascript based stuff right now. 
Been an open source developer for 10 years, always trying to push my deliverables as open source. Not as a fanatic, but as an advocate.
One of my main areas of interest is geospatial software. I participate actively in Argentina's community of geospatial developers and developed some nice tools for my community.
== Some open licensed Geo developments on my records ==
* GlobalWAMP - Wonderful Approach on Maps for Periodistas
* Leaflet Weather - A Leaflet plugin for adding a widget control to your map.
* ArgenWAMP - Aryentain Web Anamorphic Maps Player
* idera.jquery - A jQuery plugin to visualizar IDERA data. IDERA is Argentina's Spatial Data Infrastructure Initiative.
* Idera Estado WMS - A monitoring app for IDERA's WMS services.
* Argenmap - Web Maps API offering Argentina's official geo-data to web developers trying to use an official map on their own site.
** argenmap.jquery - The core browser code for embedding Argenmap maps into users' sites.
** L.TileLayer.Argenmap - A Layer interface for consuming Argenmap maps easily with Leaflet.
** OpenLayers.Layer.Argenmap - A Layer interface for consuming Argenmap maps easily with Leaflet.
** Argenmap Bugs - A bug reporter for Argenmap maps.
** Argenmap Cache builder - argenmap-cachebuilder was the first tile server cache for Argenmap maps. It was installed in multiple locations in order to lighten the load on the WMS server that rendered Argenmap maps tiles. This way, embedded maps wouldn't be a burden to the WMS service provided by IGN (Instituto Geográfico Nacional).

Osgeo3

Osgeo3 is an Ubuntu 20.04 LTS machine administered by SAC, hosted on OSU OSL servers for a long time. It in the past was running Ganeti, but was reformatted in March 2020, had fresh new disks put in and LXD installed for managing containers.
Up-to-date info about containers can be found (password-protected) in https://git.osgeo.org/gitea/sac/osgeo9/wiki/
== Hardware ==
It's makeup is as follows:

== Setup ==
As of 2021-03 the ssh port of the main host (the physical server) is 2222 and there is only one non-root account on it
and can only be accessed via key access. Keys are deployed using AnsibleDeployment repo of gitea
It has an LXD installed from snap.
So to SSH - ssh tech_dev@osgeo3.osgeo.osuosl.org -p 2222
It has 2 public ips:
 
* 140.211.15.26 ( osgeo3.osgeo.osuosl.org ) = not currently mapped to anything aside from 2222 ssh) planned for disaster should say osgeo7 go down and all need to be remapped
* 140.211.15.6 web-osgeo3.osgeo.osuosl.org
For console access, you need to have OpenVPN installed and vpn config for OSUOSL.
Once connected it can be accessed via:
```
apt install ipmitool
ipmitool -I lanplus -H osgeo3.osuosl.oob -U tech_dev -P passwordhere sol activate
```
or web interface:
http://osgeo3.osuosl.oob
Some configurations of this machine are deployed using AnsibleDeployment
It was upgraded in 2021 from Ubuntu 18 to Ubuntu 20.04.
* Ubuntu 20.04 (Release Notes). more details about install steps

Osgeo Userid Help

= Introduction =
Via this page: http://www.osgeo.org/osgeo_userid you will be directed to the scripts to either create a osgeo_userid, or to change it (for example to reset your password).
= Account creation procedure =
Go to https://id.osgeo.org/ldap/create and follow instruction there
= Password reset procedure =
Below is a Visual Representation of the password reset process.
=== First ===
First step, go to https://id.osgeo.org/ldap/reset
and fill in your email address in that form and POST it:
This screen will be the result:
=== Email confirmation email ===
And now... check your email (can take some time), you will receive this email:
Click the (one-time!) link in the email, and your password will actually be reset and you will see the following page:
=== Email with new password ===
You will receive an email with a NEW password to be able to login and change to your preferred password:
=== Login ===
Go to the link in the email, you will be presented with a login alert:
Do use the NEW password there, often your browser 'remembers' some password for you, but this is probably NOT the right one.
In the following screen you can change your password:
=== Problems ===
IF you happen to see the message 'Invalid token':
something went wrong. 
Maybe you clicked asked for a new onetime password twice, or you 'used' this onetime password already?
Just go to https://id.osgeo.org/ldap/reset again and start over...

====OSGeo Foundation Background====
Frank Warmerdam, the president of the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGF), gave some background on the foundation:
* OSGF now gives member projects credibility
* OSGF is a common vehicle for open source geospatial projects
** projects and members have a stronger voice in the corporate world
Frank also discussed the possible benefits of creating a local chapter:
* builds interest in the groups, and can sustain longer
* as part of the umbrella organization, the groups gain instant credibility
* chapter can use and build on the existing OSGF infrastructure (site, wiki, mailing lists etc.)
====OGUG Background====
Dave Sampson gave some backgound on the Ottawa GRASS users group:
* currently packaging a new GRASS [https://ottawa.osgeo.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=86

Ottawa Chapter Report 2007

= Ottawa Chapter =
* Period covered by report: Jan-Dec 2007
* Contact name: Scott Mitchell 
== Key Accomplishments ==
* held regular meetings, which included both presentations to share experience in particular projects/software, and social/networking to learn what others are doing, job opportunities, opinions on where the community is going, etc
* WIDE range of participants, including programmers, users, experts, novices, educators, students, program managers, people from government, non-profits, large and small firms
* presentations exposed the community to developments in a number of OSGEO/FOSS4G projects, including GDAL, PROJ, Geoserver, GRASS, Mapbuilder, Nunaliit, the Cybercartographic Antarctic Atlas, GeoFunctions and Mapnik
* booth presence at the GIS Day events at Carleton University and University of Ottawa, as well as Software Freedom Day
* developed and hosted a GRASS/QGIS workshop
* shared experiences from FOSS4G07 with community members that couldn't make the trip to Victoria
== Areas for Improvement ==
* keeping momentum going to have regular meetings is occasionally challenging
 
== Opportunities to Help ==
* suggest presentations that you might be able to give to the group
* encourage others to give presentations, or submit suggestions to the group on things you'd like to see
* help pay attention to the calendar and get meetings scheduled, venue reserved, A/V equipment arranged
