<br>back burner for VisCom for almost a year. I am hoping that some of<br>you might be interested in helping with it. Right now it's the<br>previous newsletter lead (Martin Wegmann) and myself trying to get it<br>started under OSGeo's banner, but obviously we can't (nor want) to do
<br>it all ourselves. A few others are available as reviewers, but we<br>really need some more editors to help collect some writing or<br>contribute some articles.<br><br>I have loved the previous GRASS newsletters and think we can do a
<br>great job on this first volume of OSGeo News.<br><br>Can you have a look at the positions that are open and tell me if<br>anything catches your eye? Also, I know some of you probably have an<br>article you'd like to contribute - if so, let me know!
<br><br>Talk to you later,<br>Tyler<br><br>-----<br>Hi all,<br>As you may be aware, last year the GRASS News production offered to<br>transition their great production into a brand new OSGeo Newsletter.<br>Although branded as OSGeo, all open source projects are welcome to be
<br>part of it.<br><br>For those of you who are unfamiliar with the last volume, have a look<br>at this:<br><a href="http://osgeo.org/files/news/GRASS_OSGeo_News_vol4.pdf">http://osgeo.org/files/news/GRASS_OSGeo_News_vol4.pdf
</a> (5.3MB). As<br>you can see it is much more than just some news clippings!<br><br>Well, now is the time to get a new team together to help make a great<br>production. You are invited to be part of that team! Want some
<br>exercise for your writing skills? Would you like to get some more<br>exposure for your project? Want to learn the ins and outs of some<br>publication software? Or do you just want to help spread the word<br>about some projects or case studies that you love?
<br><br>There are several positions available for any volunteer who would<br>help to coordinate collecting articles, writing content, reviewing<br>content, helping with layout or graphics, and more. Want to sign up<br>just for one volume or to test the waters first? That is fine too.
<br><br>Please see the Newsletter wiki page for a list of open positions and<br>categories for content that need editors:<br><a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Newsletter">http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Newsletter</a>
<br><br>If you have any reservations, comments, questions or concerns please<br>just let me know! As we will work as a team, please do not be shy<br>about your interests, even if you are going to need some help getting<br>
started.<br><br>After the team is gathered and production deadlines are finalised,<br>then we will make a more general call for contributors. If you<br>already have something that you would like to contribute, you are<br>
welcome to sign up now on the page:<br><a href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Newsletter_Volume_1">http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Newsletter_Volume_1</a><br><br>Hope you will join us in putting this together!<br><br>Tyler
