Dear Christian,<br>
<br>
<br>
My thanks and gratitude to Landon Blake, Eli Adam and everyone who helped make OSGeo Journal possible. We have some good foundations to build upon for the future.<br>
<br>
<br>
Thank you for the information and help on this. You have put some excellent ideas that will help us reinvigorating the OSGeo Journal for moving ideas and actions forward.<br>
<br>
<br>
May I request you to please consider volunteering yourself as the chair of the OSGeo Journal committee. I will be also joining the committee and also work to invite other colleagues in GeoForAll to join this committee. We can bring in the chairs of all FOSS4G Academic Committees to join the Editorial Board and Scientific Committee members as reviewers etc.<br>
<br>
<br>
We should also proactively negotiate with other GIS journals to ask them to provide full fee waiver for all authors submitting for any special issue from FOSS4G Academic Conferences from now.<br>
<br>
<br>
I will from now put the discussions on this through the OSGeo journal mail lists. I request all colleagues interested to join this list [1]. I will be on family holidays from tomorrow for a week and not using email , so will come with more ideas in 2018 :-)<br>
<br>
<br>
Best wishes,<br>
<br>
<br>
Suchith<br>
