<p>Hi all,</p>
<p>I wonder, now that voting on QGIS grants proposals are open, if we should do a short discussion on what we got.</p>
<p>I personally have an opinion on the grants, which I would be willing to share if you care and think it is appropriate.</p>
<p>This would be in the tradition of the Swiss democracy, where, at the beginning of each voting period, each stakeholder (e.g. a group of people or a political party) gets some room to share opinions. The opinions of the stakeholders are collected and jointly published with the opinion of the Swiss government - in a printed brochure (not that I ask for a printed brochure ;-) - just explaining how this works in Switzerland).</p>
<p>If you think it is useful - what would be a good mailing list to discuss it? QGIS developers list? I assume that most community members are on the qgis-developer list, but maybe not all QGIS user group representatives? Should we cross-post this on the QGIS-user and qgis-developer mailing list or would this forum be too big and it should be restricted to the members who can vote?</p>
<p>What is your opinion?</p>
<p>Andreas</p>
