The QGIS user groups have a model where the user group can be regional or national - <a href="https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/usergroups.html" target="_blank">https://www.qgis.org/en/site/forusers/usergroups.html</a> - The UK, for example, has three representing different parts of the UK. There is no reason why Oceania couldn't have multiple independent QGIS user groups like Oceania (Australia), Oceania (Aotearoa), Oceania (Fiji) etc. I do, however, see all of these user groups within Oceania having the same problem that the Australian QGIS group experienced regarding the running of our own events, as described before the OO org and SIG concept provide a framework to address that.</div><div><br></div><div>So, I don't see the SIG standing in the way of local initiatives, but we do have responsibility to engage with the Oceania community and let them know that this SIG and its resources are not exclusive to the Australian QGIS users. </div><div><br></div><div>Also, I was going to message you this and ask for advice but it's probably best out in the open for other people to throw around suggestions. I have struggled with how to best interact with parts/regions of the OO community. I've included the Australian QGIS list along the way because it is the only user group in Oceania registered on the QGIS site and the OO mailing list because we want to form a SIG within that community. However, if there are other user groups out there and people know of them i'd appreciate it if you could put me in touch.</div><div><br></div><div>My preference at the moment with the engagement we have is to push on as defined in the charter. The charter is able to be altered in the future, so if something just doesn't work or turns out to inadvertently be prohibitive then we have the opportunity to correct it. I know the people involved at the moment have the communities best interest in mind (and I understand no one is suggesting otherwise), and I am confident that the OO board will hold us to account. I think if we can address these engagement issues as we go, this could be a good example for other SIGs starting out.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div>Andrew</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Dec 18, 2020 at 1:35 PM John Bryant <<a href="mailto:johnwbryant@gmail.com" target="_blank">johnwbryant@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Thanks Andrew, I'm definitely on board with being inclusive and I think Oceania-wide is great. My concern is about the SIG being seen as the "go-to" representative of the whole region's QGIS community, before this reach is genuinely established, and inadvertently standing in the way of local leadership & initiatives. This is why I wonder whether we see this as an expansion of the QGIS Australia User Group, or if they're kept as distinct groups. I'd personally lean toward making the geographic scope large, and the operational scope small (to begin with).<br></div><div><br></div><div>Related, the OSMF made OSGeo Oceania's OpenStreetMap local chapter status conditional on making it clear that country-based groups were entitled to form their own local chapters (<a href="https://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Oceania#OpenStreetMap_Oceania" target="_blank">see wiki entry</a>).<br></div><div><br></div><div>Anyway, I don't think this concern is a blocker, more a note of caution. Hopefully Pacific and NZ people are interested and will join in, the SIG could encourage this by being proactive about supporting users there.

Emma was also very passionate from the start that this is available to all Oceania and not just Australia. However, I do take on board your observation about the comments / feedback / input being very much Australian focused, in fact, I would go one step further and say that it has primarily been from the regular posters of the <a href="https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/oceania/" target="_blank">OO mailing list</a>. Would yourself or Emma have suggestions on how we could broaden the reach and improve the community input? Are there other channels that this should be made available on?</div><div><br></div><div><i style="font-weight:bold">Which List - </i>My intention was that "the open mailing list" will be the <a href="https://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/oceania/" target="_blank">OO mailing list</a>, so I do apologise for the ambiguity here and I can clear that up in the charter. As this is a Special Interest Group within the OO org, I believe that would be the best place for it. But that is only my opinion, happy for others to share their point of view and reach an outcome that we are all happy with.</div><div><br></div><div>I have been cross-posting the charter and progress on the <a href="https://groups.google.com/g/australian-qgis-user-group" target="_blank">QGIS Australia User Group mailing list</a> for those who may be interested (I now recognise that this may have caused more confusion than necessary). A number of members in the QGIS Australia User group (myself included) wanted to form something like this SIG after the successful 2017 user meetup in Sydney, it ultimately failed because we didn't have the capacity to handle funds, and something much better came along in the local FOSS4G conference and the OO org because it addresses this challenge for all FOSS4G projects in the region. The development of this SIG will build on the QGIS community interest that we demonstrated exists in 2017, this time around we have the structure of the OO org to help us progress funding initiatives to drive investment in the community.</div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps, </div><div>Thanks</div><div><br></div><div>Andrew</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Dec 15, 2020 at 2:54 PM John Bryant <<a href="mailto:johnwbryant@gmail.com" target="_blank">johnwbryant@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hi Andrew, awesome work!

Apologies if I'm raising questions that have already been answered.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Geographic scope of the SIG</b>. In the doc it's called the Oceania QGIS SIG. I know we've talked about inclusivity, and welcoming participation from the whole region, in keeping with the ethos of FOSS4G SotM Oceania and OSGeo Oceania. But I'm noticing that so far, (I think) the discussion has only drawn comments and contributions from people in Australia. I guess this is partly because the QGIS Australia community is pretty well established, with a recognised QGIS user group and a mailing list dating back nearly 10 years. But I'm wondering if we need to do more work to make sure people in other countries welcome this representation. Does the lack of participation to date reflect that the message isn't getting through, or that only Australians are interested in this SIG? Or is it just that the Australia QGIS community is leading the conversation because it's more established, and maybe the rest of the region is watching & listening with interest, and will join in later?</div><div><br></div><div><b>Which list?</b> There are a couple of references to "the open mailing list", it might be good for us to clarify which list. The existing <a href="https://groups.google.com/g/australian-qgis-user-group" target="_blank">QGIS Australia User Group mailing list</a>, or the Oceania list, or another? I think it could be helpful to make this unambiguous so that people know where to post, and which list to follow to stay up to date. This might be part of a larger question of whether this SIG is distinct from the QGIS Australia User Group, or is the same group in a new form.<br></div><br><div>Thanks!</div><div>John<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sun, 6 Dec 2020 at 13:42, Andrew Jeffrey <<a href="mailto:aljeffrey83@gmail.com" target="_blank">aljeffrey83@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Hi All,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for the discussion on the QGIS SIG proposed charter so far. </div><div><br></div><div>I have worked in the comments on dealing with a conflict of interest, voting (minimum number of voters), and membership tiers.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">I just chip in, to elaborate on what I was thinking about when drafting the SIG guidelines.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The overall model, for me, was that of the ACM SIGs, which work well ( some), or less well ( others), but do not impact on each other. An OO member can be member of multiple SIGs, or none. Some may organise hackatons,
mapping parties, microconferences, some may not. Some may even propose ( and successfully populate and run) a stream at a FOSS4G SOTM conference (that would be awesome). They may help set the program for the conference, etc, etc.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">The level of activity, and the financial resources they may have available will differ, and it is not up to the OO (board) to dictate, as long as they do not encroach on the freedom of others to have their own activities,
do not place undue burden on the OO itself (run by volunteers, you do not want to process hundreds of micro payments, etc, I would say), or have multiple SIGs overlapping in scope.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Re fees. I would have assumed that most will be free, BUT the ability to levy a membership[ fee was left there exactly to satisfy the need for supporting a more intensive activity that is not “event” based. So, if the
QGIS SIG decides to print a monthly SIG magazine and provide it as a membership service to the SIG, sure, why not, levy a membership fee. Or a website, online course, or similar.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB"><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB">Broader membership by organisations is starting to go borderline, to what Adam noted. Is this something where the overall interests of the organisation clash with the SIG? I would suggest let’s try this, and decide, as
we go. If the burden by SIGS or the internal competition is too much ( we lose FOS4G SOTM sponsors to the SIG), then this will need to be addressed. This is I believe the main concern, but we are not there.<u></u><u></u></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">Should OSGeo act as a high capital or low capital organisation? I.e., should OSGeo dedicate energy to collecting sponsorship and then passing out these funds to worthy OSGeo
causes.<br>
While initially it seems attractive to have OSGeo woo sponsors, because we would all love to have more money to throw at worthy OSGeo goals, the reality is that chasing money is hard work. And someone who can chase OSGeo sponsorship is likely conflicted with
chasing sponsorship for their particular workplace. So in practice, to be effective in chasing sponsorship, OSGeo will probably need to hire someone specifically for the role. OSGeo would then need to raise at least enough to cover wages, and then quite a
bit more if the sponsorship path is to create extra value.<br>
This high capital path is how the Eclipse foundation is set up, and how LocationTech propose to organise themselves. It is the path that OSGeo started following when founded under the umbrella of Autodesk.<br>
However, over the last seven years, OSGeo has slowly evolved toward a low capital volunteer focused organisation. Our overheads are very low, which means we waste very little of our volunteer labour and capital on the time consuming task of chasing and managing
money. Consequently, any money we do receive (from conference windfalls or sponsorship) goes a long way - as it doesn't get eaten up by high overheads. As discussed and agreed by the board, this low capital path is something that is working very well for us,
and is the path we should continue to follow.</span><u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all<br>
<br>
Thanks Andrew for addressing all the questions people have. Responding<br>
to your reply to my questions:<br>
<br>
- OK about sponsorships and so on, I can see that the QGIS SIG could<br>
choose to align events with FOSS4G SotM Oceania editions, thereby<br>
really streamlining logistics and effort and working with the whole<br>
community<br>
<br>
- conflict of interest: really hard in a community where everyone<br>
knows each other - my science community is the same, anonymous reviews<br>
are almost impossible! I think yes, recusing people from decision<br>
making is a great step. I also think it's unrealistic to make a<br>
blanket statement that fits all cases. I think the best approach might<br>
be to handle each case as it comes, and do it transparently. To make a<br>
concrete suggestion - and feel free to disagree - the charter could<br>
contain a statement like 'Conflicts of interest, real or perceived,<br>
will be handled in accordance with our code of conduct. This means<br>
recusing relevant parties from decision making as early as possible in<br>
the process, and discussing the matter openly with our community. In<br>
some cases, we may have to proceed by funding people who make<br>
decisions about where to apply funds. This is a function of a small<br>
and close knit community, and will always be discussed openly with the<br>
community first.'<br>
<br>
There are probably heaps of loopholes in that, and impossible to close<br>
them all - so the short version is to write exactly what you wrote in<br>
reply: 'we will be ethical, and will resist being a funding pipeline<br>
to particular people or companies'. The community has to step up to<br>
make that always true.<br>
<br>
I have no thoughts to add to John's about SIG membership, except I<br>
really like that you're thinking about how to manage it in an<br>
inclusive fashion.<br>
<br>
I do have an opinion about creating sub-SIGS though - in my science<br>
career I've seen multiple disciplines discover the same tooling a few<br>
times. So my hot take is 'avoid having discipline-specific subgroups',<br>
way better to let disciplinary cross-fertilisation happen ;)<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
<br>
Adam<br>

> John, regarding your thoughts on the membership I agree 100%, the charter at the moment has a sentence stating the SIG should be "providing membership avenues for people that may not be in a financial position to pay a fee" perhaps we need more clarity around
membership and what it involves in the charter? To be clear, my thoughts are that keeping in the spirit of OO the SIG should be available to everyone and no one should be excluded from participating, on reflection the term "membership" might come across as
prohibitive. I'm sure we'll come up with something acceptable through conversation here.<br>
><br>

> For individuals donating to QGIS helps the project but has little influence on their QGIS experience, also individuals on the QGIS list have indicated trouble participating in crowdfunding campaigns due to high minimum pledges.<br>
><br>
> A QGIS SIG would allow us to receive money from interested parties wanting to support QGIS in our region, pool the funds and then spend as the SIG sees fit. The best part is the money will be spent on the items scoped in our charter which is again relevant
to users in our region. For lack of a better term think of it as a "co-op" for the donations alot of us already make on an ad-hoc basis. Ideally we would be looking to get a majority of the membership from organisations that we know use QGIS to support a bulk
of this activity, and then people willing to make a personal contribution would then add to that. Then if people can't make a personal contribution that is also fine because they can assist in other ways.<br>
><br>

>>> I agree the SIG shouldn't bring about any duplication of the processes that the OO currently does. A SIG as defined in the guidelines should be "enabling OSGeo Oceania members to interact, share knowledge, organise events, and collaborate on a selected,
targeted topic within the scope of OSGeo Oceania". So a SIG should be complementary to the OO function and allow the interested community members to drive engagement in that area without the OO board having to do it all. Like you say though, open communication
between the SIG and the OO board is key in making sure there is no overlap being introduced. Also to be clear the SIG isn’t seeking “sponsorship” as such but we do want to be able to collect a membership fee for people/orgs wanting to be involved, allowing
them to fund items that maybe other OO members don’t see as important. I don’t see this taking away from conference sponsorship and this idea will ultimately sink or swim depending on whether the SIG members have an appetite to fund the items in our scope.<br>

>>> As for the conflict of interest, to be honest I don't know the answer in regards to how that should be dealt with. I think we need to add something in the charter, would removing those people from the proposal and voting process be enough? How does OO deal
with this? I don’t want to rule local devs out of working on this because they belong to the group, but we also don’t want to become the entry point to company XYZ.<br>

idea with the membership is not to "make money" but to pool our small contributions to give us better "buying power" for lack of a better term. As a SIG within the OO org we can participate in crowdfunding campaigns, engage a dev to develop a feature important
to us but might not be recognised as important to the larger QGIS project, or engage a trainer to provide professional development via Zoom, the types of things that are hard to do as individuals or as a user group with no funds etc. The membership arrangement
also allows us to offer membership to organisations which will become a way for them to support QGIS and their local QGIS community. Ideally, this is where a majority of the funds would come from as we don't want an individual to be excluded due to a "fee",
which is also covered in the charter. I'm available as I'm sure the other proposers are to discuss the intention of this further and in the open on this list.<br>
