<p>Hi Jody,</p>
<p>Thanks for the feedback. I've changed the page
accordingly to your points. I still lack a picture of the
team (which is small and spread out), but we a planning a
meetup with the contributors this winter and I'll see if I
can get a nice picture.</p>

<div dir="ltr">Looks good, it appears as if
the project page logo and your service
provider logo are the same? That will be
awkward for you if other organizations
choose to deploy the platform :) Consider
naming the framework page "GC2/Vidi" as you
do when referenced from your service
provider page (or you know rename your
company to prevent confusion).</div>

<div>The first sentence:</div>
<div>- Say what the software does confidently,
rather than be shy about it. The use of
"project aims to make" sounds shy, be
confident you have met your "aims" :D<br>
</div>
<div>- Open source is an internal detail of
how the software is developed and
distributed (an important detail) that we
are proud of ... but it is not what the
software does for potential users (well
unless you are focused on license fees
impacting scalability).</div>

focused on freedom rather than fees.</i></div>

example of what the software looks like

to show the people that produce the software

</div>
<div>Q: A bit more basic on what the project
is for, keep in mind our visitors are no
all technologists :). As an example your
leading feature is "Deploy the whole
software stack using Docker." Now if I am
wrong and you only want visitors that have
committed to Docker that is fine also ...</div>

Incubator List,<br>
<br>
We at MapCentia has
been building an
open source project
called <br>
MapCentia GC2. Which
is actual two
projects:<br>
<br>
GC2 - Combines
PostGIS, MapServer,
QGIS Server,
MapCache,
Elasticsearch, <br>
Ogr2ogr and more
into one easy-to-use
web application.<br>
<br>
Vidi - A modern take
on web GIS. It is
the front-end for
GC2.<br>
<br>
We think that the
project is so good,
that more people
should benefit <br>
from it. So we
suggest that
MapCentia GC2/Vidi
should be an OSGeo <br>
Community Project.<br>
<br>
A more selfish
reason for joining
OSGeo is, that we
would like to <br>
involve more people
in the development.
And we think
becoming an OSGeo <br>
Community Project
could help us with
that.<br>
<br>
The MapCentia
project is today
used by
municipalities,
engineering <br>
firms, museums among
many others.<br>
