Unfortunately, Nabble <http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/>, a popular
interface to OSGeo mailing lists, is shutting down. Nabble has been very
useful to users that are not keen to use email to interact with their
community but rather a web interface. It also conveniently offered a way to
search through many mailing lists under a single entry point.

This is not really surprising, as the service has been struggling for a
couple of years. The OSGeo tickets 2574
<https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/2574> and 2616
<https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/2616> are just the most recent
examples.

Please find below the link to the official announcement, and forward this
message to anyone interested.

Happy to answer any questions.

Subject: [OSGeo-Announce] OSGeo Community program welcomes the PROJ-JNI
 project
Message-ID: <ac46203a592d6fc855e59bb86d01c981@posteo.de>

The PROJ-JNI project has been accepted into the OSGeo Community program.

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation is pleased to welcome PROJ-JNI [1] 
to our Community program. PROJ-JNI is a project that exposes Java Native 
Interface bindings to the PROJ [2] C/C++ library.

The OSGeo Community program recognizes applications and tools that are 
geospatial, freely available with an open source license, and are setup 
to collaborate fairly. This program helps OSGeo promote innovation and 
the hard work of teams and organizations worldwide.

About PROJ-JNI
----------------------
PROJ-JNI is a project that exposes Java Native Interface bindings to the 
PROJ C/C++ library, the well-known and widely-used coordinate 
transformation library that underpins most open-source geospatial 
coordinate transformations. This project allows JVM ecosystem developers 
to build directly upon recent and future improvements to PROJ via native 
bindings, rather than requiring that libraries separately re-implement 
all projection and transformation functionality in JVM languages.
PROJ-JNI currently works with system-installed versions of PROJ, and is 
currently looking into the feasibility of simplifying the end-user 
experience via pre-compiled native libraries for different platforms.

Source code is hosted on GitHub [3], which also contains documentation, 
installation, and information about contributing.

About the Open Source Geospatial Foundation
---------------------------------------------------------------
The Open Source Geospatial Foundation [4] is a not-for-profit 501(c)(4) 
organization to empower everyone with open source geospatial. The 
software foundation directly supports projects serving as an outreach 
and advocacy organization providing financial, organizational and legal 
support for the open source geospatial community.

OSGeo works with GeoCat, OPENGIS.ch, Gaia3D and other sponsors, along 
with our partners to foster an open approach to software, standards, 
data and education.
