Motions take a while ... so for today we can help Alex set up a

help Alex, the project lead, work through some of the
first steps to getting set-up, and will also try to

the repo when Alex first asked on discuss - so I
would feel comfortable giving him the go ahead
to make an OSGeo project page right away.<br>
<br>
Indeed I would be okay with any incubation
committee member performing that spot check and
giving projects the go ahead to make a project
page. <br>
<br>
As for being an OSGeo project, see other email
thread for some additional ideas (devs require
no-dumping, No API key required). I also think
we could ask osgeo projects to check their file
headers, in addition to having a license file.
Finally we should make a motion since being an
OSGeo community project has some standing in or
organization (including the ability to ask this
committee for budget requests). <br>

<div>Hey guys. I think the project
submitted by Alex meets our
criteria for an OSGeo Community
Project. (See the message from
Alex below.) It has an open
source license, is geospatial,
and accepts contributions.<br>
<br>
</div>
Are there any objections to
accepting it as a Community
Project?<br>
<br>
</div>
If there are no discussions, I'll
give some thought to a simple
process to get Community Projects
set-up. (Add a wiki page, get a
mailing list, do a little
marketing...) Then I'll ask Alex
some more questions about his
project.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">Dear
all, </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Apologies
if you received this
message already. I
sent a message last
week that made it to
the list archive (<a
href="http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/incubator/2018-January/003475.html"
target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">http://lists.osgeo.org/piperm<wbr>ail/incubator/2018-January/003<wbr>475.html</a>),
but apparently not to
all email inboxes. </p>
<span>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I
would like to
propose my open
source library as an
OSGeo Community
project. The library
is called Blink
Raster and it is a
C++ library aimed at
efficient raster
processing using
basic and modern C++
idioms. The library
is based on my
experience of
developing Cellular
Automata land use
models, map
comparison methods,
neutral models and
geostatistics for
raster data. I would
think that the
primary users will
be researchers in
the field of
environmental
modelling, who
require more
flexibility than
offered by GIS
packages and more
efficiency than
offered by script
based libraries.
However, the
functionality is
quite fundamental,
so who knows where
it may be useful.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
</span>
<p class="MsoNormal">I
think I meet all the
requirements for a
Community project. I
still lack a community
though
<span
style="font-family:Wingdings">J</span>.
I will introduce the
library at FOSDEM 2018
and submitted an
abstract for the
FOSS4G UK 2018. in
March.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The
project is hosted on
Github: <a
href="http://www.github.com/ahhz/raster"
target="_blank"
moz-do-not-send="true">
www.github.com/ahhz/raster</a></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I
am quite open as to
whether this should
formally be an OSGeo
Community project or
just a project listed
on the website. I
believe the library is
at a stage now where
it can be useful to
people and can be used
within other projects.
The reason for
reaching out to the
OSGeo community is to
find users, get
feedback and
potentially find
collaborators.</p>
<span>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank
you for taking this
into consideration,
I’ll be happy to
hear from you.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">With
kind regards, Alex</p>
