<p>I'm looping Scott's comments (from the OGC) into the general OGC discussion forum, as I think there are others who might be interested.</p>
<p>I'll add that you should plan to dedicate a lot of time if you intend to partake in OGC initiatives. The OGC tackles hard interoperability problems and you will likely need to think and discuss deeply with like minded people. It is hard work, but it can
be very satisfying and rewarding to be working on the bleeding edge of technology (as many open source developers are doing already).<br>

Jonathan (and anybody else listening). </span>Something that might be attractive to providers of open-source offerings is the opportunity to participate in OGC testbeds and other initiatives. Any OGC member who's interested might consider the following:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1. Sign up as an Observer for the OGC Testbed-15 initiative to learn how they work.</div>
<div>2. Plan on submitting a bid in early 2020 to implement new offerings as part of OGC Testbed-16.</div>
<div>3. Selected bidders will become participants to receive cost-share funds to help offset the cost of developing testbed component implementations.</div>
<div>4. These participants will retain full control over the source code assets. All that must be delivered are interoperability demonstrations showing how the work helps advance the OGC standards baseline.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Under current testbed policies, OGC does not take possession of any of the developed source code. So in some sense, this is a roundabout way to get "paid" to develop open-source code. It's generally not sufficient funds to enable full cost recovery. But
if the alternative is to receive no funding at all, this might present an attractive option.</div>
<div><br>
