For our new website, i would also like to have a section and webform for publishing data on annual Open Source Report Card for organisations [1]. We had some discussions last year on this and it is important to make sure we have this done for the new website.
This will also help us to atleast partially try to quantify the economic impact of Open Source Geospatial software [2]<br>
<br>
<p>Peter, Philip - please have the webform for publishing data on annual Open Source Report Card for organisations as part of the updates for our website. Thanks.<br>

<br>
Best wishes,<br>

Hi Folks,<br>
<br>
After completing the EOI/RFP process last month, the marketing<br>
committee has finally kicked off our project [1] with the selected<br>
vendor Get Interactive [2].<br>
<br>
The minutes from our kickoff meeting yesterday can be found here [3],<br>
and more background information, including the documents that describe<br>
the scope of the project can be found here [1]<br>
<br>
In summary, this project will produce 3 sets of output; 1) An updated<br>
set of branding for our organization and its sub-brands which will be<br>
delivered as a standard online organizational brand style guide. 2) A<br>
new website theme and foundational content which will be heavily<br>
oriented toward on-boarding new users and guiding them toward an<br>
appropriate set of software for their needs. The new website will<br>
provide a home for sub-brands (OSGeo-live, GeoForAll, Local Chapters<br>
etc) that wish to use the overall theme and structure 3) A set of<br>
digital templates and collateral for print marketing materials that<br>
will be able to be customized and used by local chapters and GeoForAll<br>
labs or for general outreach. The gory details for each of these<br>
components can be found in the EOI document [4].<br>
<br>
We will be working with SAC on standing up the new site and<br>
distributing these materials and our goal is to have the new site live<br>
before FOSS4G in Boston and to be ready to onboard content<br>
contributors (YOU!!).<br>
<br>
We have a representative from SAC (Harrison Grundy) who has joined our<br>
project team and are specifically looking for someone to join from the<br>
GeoForAll initiative as well as someone to represent the interests of<br>
the local chapters projects. We really invite *anyone* from the<br>
community to help us manage this project, so if you are available to<br>
fill these roles, please join the marketing list and speak up!<br>
<br>
Our committee will be providing regular updates to this list<br>
approximately once a month and there will be ample opportunity for you<br>
to provide feedback as we move through the process. Please speak up!,<br>
but lets all work very hard to be constructive and look toward the<br>
larger goal of presenting OSGeo, our projects and initiatives<br>
professionally, clearly and most of all in a way that is easily<br>
accessible to the large number of GIS users out there who may not yet<br>
be familiar with open source and are looking to us as their Open<br>
Source Compass.<br>
<br>
Happy to answer any questions about the process or deliverables here<br>
or on the marketing list. We are extremely excited to finally be able<br>
to update our brand and external facing presence. We look forward to<br>
your input and participation!<br>
<br>
Jeffrey Johnson (on behalf of the Marketing Committee)<br>
