<p>If you look at the landing page for joining this list it has the
following description.<br>
</p>
<p><b>Started in 2005, this list is for any discussion related to
any aspect of open GIS (open source, open data, open content,
etc.) anywhere in Africa. <br>
</b></p>
<p>The above statement is descriptive enough. Sometimes in the list,
we encounter conversations about proprietary GIS which we respond
to. But generally, we do not encourage specific questions about
how to do certain tasks using proprietary GIS software. I am sure
there are plenty of platforms for asking questions with regards to
XYZ(proprietary) software.<br>
</p>
<p>Interesting questions could be like: <br>
</p>
<p>I usually do these tasks in software XYZ (proprietary) how do I
do the same tasks using Open Source GIS software ?.<br>
