=Annonce de la création de la Représentation Francophone=
Diffusé le 24/09/2007.
 Bonjour,
 
 C'est avec plaisir que j'annonce l'officialisation du local chapter Francophone cet après-midi lors de la réunion du Bureau de l'OSGeo.
 
 Au niveau de l'organisation de local chapter il nous reste encore à mettre en place une association légale nous permettant de gérer des 
 fonds afin d'être présent lors des divers événements Francophone.
 
 Les prochains mois verront la mise en place de différents projets, vous pouvez vous impliquer dans l'un d'eux ou bien en proposer un qui vous 
 tient à coeur. Toutes les contributions sont les bienvenues. Merci à toutes les personnes qui ont déjà contribuées dans l'un des projets réalisés.
 
 Y.
= Francophone Local Chapter Formed =
On the 24th of September, the OSGeo Board accepted the formal creation of the Francophone Local Chapter. This is the first step toward a strong and stable Local Chapter and the next few months will see the creation of a legal association (OSGeo-fr) in order to increase its strength. 
This Local Chapter aims to help address internationalization and localization issues in software and documentation, as well as consider specific Francophone problems while promoting OSGeo, GFOSS, open standards and free data.
The mailing list of the Francophone Local Chapter is a community of more than 115 subscribers from at least 8 different countries (including France, Switzerland, Canada, Belgium, Cote d'Ivoire, Togo, New-Caledonia, Italia), and the Francophone Local Chapter wiki category counts 54 articles.
Find more information about this Local Chapter on the wiki page or mailing list.

= La Représentation Francophone est Créée =
Le 24 septembre 2007, le Conseil de l'OSGeo a accepté la proposition de création de la Représentation Francophone. Il s'agit du premier pas vers une Représentation Locale forte et pérenne. Dans les prochains mois, une association légale (OSGeo-fr) va être créée pour formaliser son statut. 
Les missions de cette Représentation Locale seront de traiter les problématiques d'internationalisation et de francisation des logiciels et de la documentation ainsi que certains problèmes spécifiques à la Représentation tout en promouvant l'OSGeo, les logiciels de géomatiques libres et open source, les standards ouverts et les données libres.
La liste de diffusion de la Représentation Francophone représente une communauté de plus de 115 personnes, venant de plus de 8 pays (incluant la France, la Suisse, le Canada, la Belgique, la Côte d'Ivoire, le Togo, l'Italie). Le wiki de la Représentation Francophone compte plus de 54 articles.
Pour plus d'informations sur cette Représentation Locale, référez-vous au wiki ou à la liste de diffusion.

OSGeo at EuroOSCON 2006

= General =
* O'Reilly's European Open Source Convention held in Brussels, Belgium - September 18th-21st, 2006.
* See http://conferences.oreillynet.com/euos2006/ 
OSGeo at OSCON 2006 was a good experience - there was so much interest from other open source development community members in what OSGeo is doing - it would be great to get a 'presence' together for EuroOSCON too.
== To Do ==
* What is to be done?
* OSGeo shares booth space with Autodesk
* Brochure and flyer editing to be coordinated by VisCom. List deliverabels from committtee and projects. 
* Do people who are attending not have t-shirts and how can they get them.
== OSGeo related talks and sessions ==
* Schuyler Erle is doing an OpenLayers talk.
* Jo Walsh is planning to do a Public Geodata BOF
=== Geospatial Hotspots ===
Presenters: Arnulf Christl & Schuyler Erle 
 
This lightning talk will walk you through through the OSGeo Foundation, showing its services and products. The OSGeo currently comprises a stack of 8 Free and Open Source Software projects, plus committees centered on education and public geodata. Our mission is to educate people to use the software stack to produce and make use of freely available geodata.
== Confirmed attendence ==
* Schuyler Erle
* Jo Walsh
* User:Arnulf Christl (Event Owner)

OSGeo at GeoWeb2006

=== Events ===
* Michael is doing a presentation for OSGeo
* Gary is doing a presentation for Autodesk
* Ian is doing a presentation () for PSU 
* Autodesk has booth space for OSGeo brochures: mpg to handle this
=== Attendees ===
* Michael Gerlek
* Gary Lang
* Ian Turton
* Jason Birch (or maybe not?)
* Dave Patton
* Janice Denovan
=== OSGeo Meetup ===
Originally, there was a tentative dinner set for Tuesday July 25th, but that conflicts with a GeoWeb function that Michael is involved with, so the new tentative plan is to meet for 'drinks at the hotel' at 7PM on Tuesday July 25th.
* I(Dave Patton, dpatton on #osgeo) live in Vancouver, and would like to meet with OSGeo members who are attending GeoWeb. Michael will have a phone number to contact me.
** I'm not attending GeoWeb myself, but I'm open to meeting for dinner and/or drinks, and I could help out at the conference if needed.
** I'll be back in Vancouver by the evening of Monday July 24th.
An alternative suggestion from Dave to 'drinks at the hotel at 7PM' on Tuesday July 25th:
* If it's a small group that is going to meet(max 5 people, including me) I could pick you up at 'the hotel' at 7PM, and drive somewhere, as the weather is really nice in Vancouver right now, and it should last through Tuesday
** one option would be to drive through Stanley Park, over the Lions Gate Bridge, and up to the lookout on the road to the Cypress Mountain ski area, for a nice view of Vancouver
** another option would be to drive to Jericho Beach, and have a drink at the Jericho Sailing Centre
* Some suggestions(from Dave) for dinner places:
** Vij's - no reservations(may be a wait), very good food, popular
** C - probably need a reservation, great seafood
** Yoshi's on Denman - Sushi(Frank W and I met there when he was in town)
Ian doesn't eat seafood!!!
The best (only?!) time for mpg is after 7pm on Tuesday.
OSGeo at GeoWeb2006 Report

This is the "after action report" on our attendence at GeoWeb 2006 (OSGeo_at_GeoWeb2006).
=== Summary ===
GeoWeb 20006 had ~250 attendees, up from ~100 in previous years (when it was called GML Days). It is a less technical conference than it used to be, but attracts developers, product managers, execs, etc. The event has no open source component.
Our attendence was limited to a couple presentations and some flyers. Given the minimal expense -- basically just the flyers (which I covered anyway) -- it was certainly worth it in that we simply continued to spread the Open Source message to more people.
=== Presentations ===
* mpg presented his "Introduction to OSGeo" presentation (30-40 in attendence)
** did get stumped by one question ("copyright policy for contributed projects?"), oops
** I will put my slides on the "library" pages
** gave away the last Where 2.0 shirt :-)
* mpg did two panel sessions (representing both OSGeo and LizardTech)
* Gary gave his "why Autodesk went to open source" keynote - went well, is available for podcast at []
* Ian T. presented a paper (I didn't get to see it, sorry)
=== Booth ===
We did not have an OSGeo-specific booth, but Autodesk did allow us to put some flyers in their booth. I had made up a few dozen "booklets" consisting of the per-project flyers, plus a several dozen of Tyler's new one-page overview flyer -- the Autodesk guys were nice enough to push them out to people. (I was not able to spend any time at the booth.)
Only a dozen or so of the 1-page flyers were left at the end.
=== Misc ===
* Our own Jason B was there for a day (attending one of my (non-OSGeo) talks).
* Geoff Z. from Autodesk and a few others mentioned OSGeo and our efforts during their own presentations
* mpg got a number of people asking questions, etc, after his presentation
* One exec from a small but well known GIS company said he'd like to join us (mpg will forward details to FunCom).
* mpg got to meet Lisa L -- seems to have a good background for what we need!
* mpg was unable to participate in the meetup; not sure if it happened in the end or not
* (and mpg and Gary had a nice dinner, too)
* got some nice/appreciative comments from some OGC execs, too
OSGeo be meeting 20200508

PRESENT: Roel, Arnaud, Simon, Johan, Gael
AGENDA
* Brainstorming around foss4g BE
Our Foss4G is scheduled on 27 October.
Gael checked if the date is maintained by Brussels Environment. They confirm.
On the same date (27/10) BEGEO (NGI event) is reprogrammed.
=> together we decide not to hold FOSS4G on the same day.
But, nobody knows if the big events (Begeo > 1000 people) will be able to be maintained in October.
If it is still forbidden, maybe smaller events like ours can be maintained.
At the moment we can't say anything for sure.
Here are a FEW IDEAS:
If we can maintain an event this year:
* not same date than BEGEO (27/10) or Trefdag (26/11)
* preferably a reprogramming in December rather than September.
We may have to consider or be forced to adapt the event to half a day rather than a full day. (reduce contact time).
We can also consider one Foss4g as an Online conference:
* We can get inspired by the recent OSGEO.NL experience.
* We can maybe ask to use some video material at the Fosdem organization
* We can imagine inviting all the speaker and the organization teams on the same date and same place, to maximize the quality…
Another point briefly evoked:
* How to motivate our sponsors
* We can announce the next starting of call of paper
* We can make an announcement that the event will take place this year but that the form of the event and the final date will be communicated shortly (max end of the summer.)
TO DO:
* Prepare consolidated suggestion or other way for next brainstorming meeting:
* Complete the poll :
https://framadate.org/wG6bsAtmeRXAUEXx
* Ask BE if they have other available this end of year.
* Suggest short list of another place for the event.
* Prepare a beer for our next jitsi meeting (same place:
 https://meet.jit.si/osgeobelgium)

OSGeo icon set

== Motivation ==
To help to create a consistent graphical user interface experience for free and Open Source Software for GIS (Slight modification from Tango's motivation)
== Background ==
The Tango Desktop Project has been launched to do the same for the broader foss world. It has defined an icon style guide and uses the freedesktop.org icon naming specification. By using the same guidelines for the OSGeo icon set we can use the already vast set of standard icons available through the Tango project. The goal of the OSGeo Icon Set is to create the GIS-specific icons required by various software projects.
== Available Material ==
* See also OSGeo map symbol set
* Tango's base icon set
* GIS icon set Robert Szczepanek has created a GIS icon theme inspired by the Tango Project. We can use this as a starting point for the general OSGeo Icon Set.
* Toolbar icons for GIS applications (2008) by Robert Szczepanek, Geoinformatics FCE CTU 2008
* uDig Imagery Guidelines
* Mapbox icons (BSD License)
* latest 2017: https://github.com/Cracert/GIS-icons
* latest 2021: https://github.com/Viglino/font-gis (SVG GIS related icons)
== Required Icons ==

OSGeo member page instruction

The OSGeo Member list is user maintained and not controlled through a formal process.
== Introduction ==
If you consider yourself an OSGeo Member, then you may want yourself listed on the OSGeo Member list. Everyone is welcome.
First, create a user on this Wiki. Then add some information about yourself on your user page (must be logged in). You may input your latitude and longitude on your user page. Read the discussion page to see what could be done with those coordinates. Hack it if you feel like it. Watch out for Axis Order Confusion when you do it.
To be listed on this page, you can add the [[Category:OSGeo Member]] category tag to your user page, but it might be better to follow the instructions in the following section.
== Publish your real name instead of your User:name ==
If you want your name to appear in the list, rather than the User: prefix and your MediaWiki userid, follow these steps:
* Construct a URL consisting of "http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/" plus your name, where spaces in your name are replaced by underscore (_) characters. For example, if your name was "First Last", the URL would be "http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/First_Last"
* Visit that URL. If you get a page that says "There is currently no text in this page...", then your page does not yet exist, and you can proceed with the next step. If you find that the page does already exist, then you will have to go back to the prior step and select a different name (e.g. perhaps add your middle initial).
* Add your name, interests, occupation, links to your homepage, project and work pages and maybe a picture. 
* Save this page. 
* Then go to your MediaWiki user page (by clicking on your Name First Last as it appears in the upper right menu of the Wiki) and edit it. The URL of this page looks something like "http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/User:First Last". 
* Select the "edit" link and add a MediaWiki redirect link to this page, i.e. a single line “#REDIRECT [[First Last]]”. This will forward the user to the page you just created under your full name. 
* If your user page is at [[User:FLast]], then add this line: "http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/First_Last"
* Don't forget to save your new page.
== Publish your membership to local chapters, committees and other sub groups ==
* Visit the URL created in the previous instruction Redirect. 
* Select the "edit this page" link.
** Tag this page so that it appears in the requested OSGeo member list(s). 
You do that by for instance adding this line:
 [[Category:OSGeo Member]]
to get listed in the OSGeo Member list. Or
 [[Category:Nederland]]
to be shown in the Local Chapter: Nederland. Before Setting the category for your Local Chapter, check the list of Local Chapters.
== User map ==
To appear on the user map, just follow the instructions in OSGeo Member Map documentation.

OSGeo signs Memorandum of Understanding with CGS Nottingham

; Nottingham, UK ,September 22, 2010 
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) and the Centre for Geospatial Science (CGS), University of Nottingham have signed a Memorandum of Understanding for
the establishment of an Open Source Geospatial Lab (OSGL) and to develop
collaboration opportunities for academia, industry and government
organisations in open source GIS software and data in the UK.
Professor Mike Jackson, Director of the Centre of Geospatial Science,
said "The MOU between OSGeo and the Centre for Geospatial Science at the
University of Nottingham is an indication of the close collaboration
between the two organisations which has already underpinned two very
successful Conferences on open source research in the geospatial domain.
CGS is funding two research internships to help progress joint research
activities and welcomes both offers of funding for further internee
sponsorships and approaches from potential visiting scientists who may
wish to spend a period of time based at the Centre in Nottingham to work
on open source geospatial research."
 
Arnulf Christl, President of OSGeo, said, "The Foundation has
successfully achieved it's first primary goal: To support Free and Open
Source Software projects in the geospatial realm. One of the other two
pillars of the foundation is supporting education which is much harder
for a developer driven organization to achieve on it's own. Therefore
this Memorandum of Understanding with CGS is a great success from
OSGeo's point of view and will mark the start of an ongoing strong
partnership with academia. In the long run this will enhance education
and research in the Open Source geospatial realm in a broader context as
other institutes recognize the opportunity and join forces."
 
Tyler Mitchell, Executive Director of OSGeo said "Engaging academia at
several levels is crucial to meeting our common long term missions of
advancing open source geospatial technology. OSGeo's relationship with
CGS serves as a proactive template for how other institutions can also
engage with OSGeo at a more formal level. This will open up additional
exciting opportunities that we haven't even thought of yet."
 
The MOU provides for the establishment of a research laboratory for
supporting development of open-source geospatial software technologies,
training and expertise. It also provides provision of internship
opportunities for high quality students. An Advisory Board/Steering
Committee coordinated by the OSGeo Board and CGS, is to be setup and
will be comprised of key members of OSGeo, OSGeo:UK, eminent academics,
industry leaders, etc. to give strategic input and direction for Open
Source Geospatial Lab and its open source activities.
