<div class="moz-cite-prefix">I've had some experience with rasdaman
through their involvement with OSGeo-Live.<br>
<br>
In rasdaman's favour, I've found is that the rasdaman community
have been quick to respond to our comments and update issues that
we find during the packaging project.<br>
<br>
I've heard that rasdaman has been putting continuous integration
in place to help with QA.<br>
I think that this is an excellent step forward, as I think Quality
Assurance has been one of rasdaman's weak points to date. Over the
last few OSGeo-Live releases we have picked up more issues with
rasdaman that we have with comparable projects.<br>
<br>
I don't think rasdaman need focus on where their infrastructure is
hosted (osgeo or otherwise) but instead focus their energy on
putting the boring testing processes in place. Because good
Quality Control leads to reliability, and in turn, customer
confidence.<br>

I think that the remaining issues are more related to community
process development.<br>
<br>
We still haven’t made the transition to a truly open community:<br>
<br>
<ul>
<li>Most activity and decision making still appears to be
centered around Jakobs Uni / Rasdaman.com. I haven’t seen
much discussion on the lists around a PSC, apart from my and
Alan Beccati’s comments. </li>
<li>I do know from discussions with Peter Baumann that there
are a number of users and potentially developers within
Europe, particularly Germany who are hesitant to discuss
issues openly in English, but do converse amongst
themselves. So we have a cultural / language issue here as
well, with potentially hidden processes that the rest of the
community does not see. </li>
<li>Though there is still quite a lot of developer
contribution coming from other areas as well. </li>
<li>Rasdaman have recently opened up access to their wiki
hosted at Jakobs Uni after a request for access by myself to
the mailing list. </li>
<li>I haven’t raised it yet with the community, though I do
wonder how much of a deterrent having the wiki, trac etc
hosted at Jakobs is to more open development of the Rasdaman
Community. It does leave the perception of being a research
oriented project. </li>
<li>Perhaps this infrastructure would be better hosted within
the OSGeo umbrella, however this would probably be a big
disruption to the community at this stage of their
development. Thoughts?<br>
</li>
</ul>
<br>
So in answer to your question, I think that we will need some
time for processes and the community to come together into a
more cohesive and open environment.<br>

Thanks for the status update Bruce - moving to a continuous
build is a huge load off the developers.<br>
Is there anything we can do to help Rasdaman along? Or is it
just case of finding the time ...<br>
