<div dir="ltr">Hi All<div><br></div><div>Further to our last PSC meeting (and prompted by Anita's email) I would like to formally propose that we add 3 new seats to our PSC:</div><div><br></div><div><div>* **Design advisor**</div>
<div> To oversee the design elements of QGIS including application icons, dialogs,</div><div> usabililty, and more broadly the project image and style guidelines for public</div><div> resources such as the web site, manual, context help and any other elements of</div>
<div> the project that relate to design. The design advisor will ensure that we</div><div> present out software in the best possibly way, paying particular attention to</div><div> usability, visual style and consistency and presenting a well thought out and</div>
<div> cohesive project to the world at large.</div><div><br></div><div>* **Infrastructure Manager**</div><div> To manage the infrastructural components of the QGIS project including our</div><div> web presence, and other online resources that we provide to the public at large</div>
<div> and use internally to manage the project.</div><div><br></div><div>* **Testing and QA manager**</div><div> To oversee the development of a Quality Assurance framework infrastructure</div><div> within QGIS so that we may present the best possible version of QGIS to the</div>
<div> world at large. The remit includes development of a comprehensive unit testing</div><div> framework, curation of the issue tracker, improving API documentationm API</div><div> consistency and generally supporting and promoting the improvement of quality</div>
<div> within the project.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div style>Following the last meeting, we resolved to deliberate whether these positions were indeed suitable roles for incoming PSC members. Could you please indicate your agreement / disagreement with these proposed positions, and in the case of disagreement, please propose an alternative strategy for growing the PSC.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>For my vote:</div><div style><br></div><div style><div>* Design advisor +1</div><div>* Infrastructure Manager +1</div><div>* Testing and QA manager +1</div><div><br></div><div style>Best regards</div>
