have to say I can do that only for the two issues I edited
(13+14), for which I have my own backups. The other volumes on
the Wiki and in the SVN are a total mess, of most I cannot
find a final version at all, because in very many cases links
are dead (eg this one

wrong place (eg <a

Helena, Barend, Eli, all,<br>
<br>
I would propose to preserve all Journal-related ressources
via the open access Zenodo repository (<a
href="http://zenodo.org/"
id="OWA518724c7-573c-27a5-705e-223ffd33fd55"
class="OWAAutoLink" data-auth="NotApplicable"
style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"
moz-do-not-send="true">zenodo.org</a> -> no costs,
professional long term preservation, an open source
infrastructure backed by CERN), which is already being used
for other OSGeo content, including software, data and
publications (<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/DOI"
id="OWA6b2d0055-baf6-d516-b031-5f6e514abbac"
class="OWAAutoLink moz-txt-link-freetext"
data-auth="NotApplicable"
style="margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;"
moz-do-not-send="true">https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/DOI</a>).<br>
<br>
While we don't have a common strategy within OSGeo (yet) to
interlink such ressources, once they have received DOI
(Digital Object Identifiers), they can be discovered,
referenced and _interlinked_.<br>
<br>
We have already have that for OSGeo projects which actively
use DOI for software versioning: It's feasible to reference
either particular software releases or the whole software
project. A reference to the project allows to discover all
software releases, and vice verca.<br>
<br>
In a similar fashion, the OSGeo journal could be referenced
by DOI, or alternatively individual Journal editions. DOI
can be obtained via Zenodo, but also other institutions,
like NASA, maybe AGU, etc..<br>
<br>
The most important thing would be to include the OSGeo ROR
(persistent id from the research organisation registry, we
have this since early 2023) in the metadata when registering
a DOI via a repo:<br>

</a>)<br>
<br>
[The ROR ID can also be added to already existing OSGeo DOI]<br>
<br>
This allows in the long run to mine/discover all content
preserved in open access repos for OSGeo related content (no
matter what it is -> Journal editions, code, data, etc.)<br>
<br>
<br>
So once there will be renewed interest to reboot the
Journal, all resources will be ready and usable.<br>
This is compatible with the OSGeo publication in the ISPRS
Archives (e.g. <a
href="https://us01.z.antigena.com/l/WNmsHkD4llS-jG-rQEhGqcKULrFbdVaSYeAke7uGpkFFWY-qWZmXWFmP8yJX1xt2sWDRnX8R_hDKYpDP1UUgsIVEf~vhloXtAJ~-V3vcj5G-rFGzboU3_HqbiKU-azNrWLB_3nnjplNjI9DcpFjcNEF~WuzLSHO3pakEQv6TkllKizD3sobSG6h6WUfA9tN2-KwYpH5ZrvrJOWBPF~6mBvh95tGPQKVopyjagMn"

Betreff: Re: [Journal] Current interest level in OSGeo
Journal?<br>
<br>
Barend, thank you for answering the email from Eli, I agree
that there seems to be no volunteers to pursue this effort,
the conference papers were published through other means,
mostly special issues of indexed journals,<br>
but it would be useful to give heads-up on OSGeo discuss
that the mail list is going to be closed and the past issues
will be archived - I cc-d Peter here maybe he has some
suggestions <br>
on suitable repository.<br>

not linked anymore/where from the wiki....? I repaired that
bit, but really have no time or interest for more. I suggest
someone should at least archive the stuff that is there,
maybe just a list of and PDFs of the issues that are
present...?<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The OSGeo Journal email list, the Journal itself, and
associated websites have been dormant for years. Are there
people interested in this project and effort? <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
If there are people interested, then perhaps they can have
more of a leadership role and re-invigorate the Journal. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
If there are not people interested, then perhaps we can ask
on the Discuss list as well as connecting with the GeoForAll
effort and see if there is a more appropriate home for the
Journal somewhere there or related academic realms. I
believe that there have been related successes in the past
to publish OSGeo editions in other indexed journals. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
If there is no interest anywhere, then perhaps we should
update our pages noting that things are dormant or closed,
close the email list, and otherwise responsibly wind down
the effort. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Looking forward to hearing thoughts and suggestions. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Best regards,
Eli_______________________________________________<br>
