Hi Stephen and others,<br><br>Sorry for the late answer, but I was "offline" for a few days ;-)<br><br>First some updates on the designated initial PSC members, who are right now:<br><ul><li>Anton Patrushev
</li><li>Christian Gonzalez
</li><li>Ema Miyawaki
</li><li>Frédéric Junod
</li><li>Stephen Woodbridge
</li><li>Venkatesh Raghavan
</li></ul>Also updated on the wiki <a href="http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/wiki/PSC">http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/wiki/PSC</a><br>There I removed the paragraph about IRC as well. (<a href="http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/wiki/PSC?action=history">http://pgrouting.postlbs.org/wiki/PSC?action=history</a>)<br>
<br>I didn't read yet the details about OpenLayers or Mapserver PSC process. Is there any important difference? Any advantage of one of them?<br><br>In my opinion we could get started like this:<br><br>(1) CONFIRM INITIAL PSC<br>
<ul><li>I would like to hear from each PSC member on this list what they think about the PSC guideline and if they are (still) willing to join (at least a +1 would be nice ;-)<br></li><li>... and if anyone wants to submit objections please do it now!</li>
</ul>(2) MAILING LIST(s)<br><ul><li>Create a "pgrouting-dev" mailing list for further discussion and also for PSC votes (I don't think we need another mailing list for PSC)</li><li>Personally I would like to move mailing lists to <a href="http://lists.osgeo.org">lists.osgeo.org</a>, because it takes responability for mainteneance from Orkney and I know that it was tricky to setup for the specific environment. Nevetheless it should be possible to copy the existing archive of "pgrouting-users" to the new place.</li>
</ul>(3) 1.04 RELEASE<br>As some warming up the new PSC could vote for a bugfix release. For this release I wouldn't follow something like the OpenLayers release process yet, because I think "trunk" has been tested now for more than a year ;-) <br>
<br>(4) SVN REPOSITORY<br><ul><li>Install "Submin" to administer user accounts (very convenient tool)</li><li>Discuss repository structure and access rights</li><li>Discuss about the pgRouting "tools" (I'm not so happy with the
current structure)</li><li>Move ot OSGeo infrastructore or not? Maybe pgRouting project can run on some dedicated virtual
server, that more people can have
access to.</li></ul>(5) TRAC <br><ul><li>From time to time TRAC spam is quite annoying. Find a solution for this.<br></li><li>Discussion/Forum is quite popular and more used than mailing lists from users, but automatic notification doesn't work (anymore)</li>
<li>Not sure if we could keep Discussion/Forum extension on OSGeo server</li><li>Not sure how difficult moving TRAC would be</li><li>TRAC is not good in multilingual support (for example Redmine does much better and also provides subprojects). Is everyone happy with TRAC?</li>
<li>Move to OSGeo infrastructore or not? Maybe pgRouting project can run on some dedicated virtual
server, that more people can have
access to.</li></ul>(6) WRITE RFC(s)<br>I think for discussions about new development, roadmap, documentation, etc. we should then use the pgrouting-dev mailing list and write RFC's as Stephen proposed.<br><br>Any thoughts?<br>

Hi guys,<br>
<br>
What is next toward forming a PSC?<br>
Are we ready to a vote to confirm the PSC members?<br>
The PSC then needs to adopt some process maybe modeled after the<br>
Mapserver or maybe the OpenLayers process.<br>
<br>
Do we have any developers that are willing to invest time in this?<br>
Like for a point release?<br>
Adding any new features?<br>
<br>
I only ask, because if not, it seems senseless to create a PSC if there<br>
is not work that is going to get done.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
-Steve<br>

PS: here is the OpenLayers release process<br>
