It looks like the following projects have not provided an update
during the AGM and should be called to attend our next board
meeting:<br>
<br>
- gvSIG<br>
- Marble<br>
- QGIS<br>
- FDO<br>
- GDAL/OGR<br>
- GEOS<br>
- GeoTools<br>
- OSSIM<br>
- PostGIS<br>
- GeoNetwork<br>
- deegree<br>
- geomajas<br>
- Mapbender<br>
- MapFish<br>
- MapGuide Open Source<br>
- OpenLayers<br>
<br>
Given the number of the projects in that list, perhaps it would be
easier to organize separate meetings (or video calls), asking
projects and board members to attend.<br>
<br>
I volunteer to follow up with the project officers and arrange
those meetings if the board approves.<br>
<br>
Best,<br>
Angelos</div></div><div text="#000000" bgcolor="#FFFFFF"><div class="m_-4685896561088704935m_-4860752689586072682moz-cite-prefix"><br>

<pre>In our most recent mins that we had a good review of outstanding f2f action
items <a class="m_-4685896561088704935m_-4860752689586072682moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Meeting_2017-10-05" target="_blank"><https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Meeting_2017-10-05></a>, one thing we
are missing is following up on our well attended, entertaining, annual
general meeting.
I am (CCing) the discussion list here as this is a fun update.
The main action item is to invite projects and committees who missed the
AGM to the next board meeting (Board Meeting 2017-11-02
<a class="m_-4685896561088704935m_-4860752689586072682moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Meeting_2017-11-02" target="_blank"><https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Board_Meeting_2017-11-02></a>). Anita has also
identified this as an opportunity to start thinking about next years budget.
The slides are here:

We had reports from the board and core officers (or delegate):
- president: delegated to helena as vice-president
- treasurer
- secretary
- elections - annual short term position
Initiatives:
- Website/rebranding - temporary initiative
- OSGeo-Live
Projects:
- GRASS GIS
- GeoMOOSE
- ORFEO ToolBox - welcome to new graduate!
- pycsw
- geonode
- pywps*
- MapServer
- ZOO project - brought up external slides
- GeoServer
*via incubation committee
Aside: t*here was some confusion for projects who had had a state-of talk
during the conference. The AGM update is focused on the project health and
happiness, rather than technology updates.*
Local Chapters
- OSGeo Korean Chapter
- GfOSS.it
- OSGeo Ireland
- D-A-Ch: FOSSGIS e.V.
- OSGeo:UK
- OSGeo.JP
- <a href="http://geo-spatial.org" target="_blank">geo-spatial.org</a> (OSGeo.RO)
- And more
- OSGeo Finland Chapter Report
- OSGeo Spanish Language Chapter
- OSGeo Africa
- OSGeo European
*Aside: There was a lot of friendly encouragement from
the European chapters considering considering bidding for FOSS4G 2019.*
*Note: Local chapter updates are the highlight of any AGM (and
inspirational). There is no expectation for a report from local chapters -
they do not have an officer representative in our organization. I think
this makes sense since they are regional in nature and need to have the
freedom to incorporate in accordance with local laws*.
Committees:
- United Nations Committee
- GeoForAll
- Conference Committee
- OpenGeoScience Committee
- Marketing Committee
- Incubation Committee
- GSoC - is this a committee or initiative?
