Hello Colleagues,

This is the final reminder for the vote on this motion. The vote closes today.

We are still short of our quorum.

I’d like to thank Tom, Bob, Jo, Arnulf, and Daniel for taking the time to review the Open Data Cube project and vote.


As a community, we’d like to attract vibrant projects to OSGeo.

However, I am seeing with this vote and a number of others in the past that we are struggling to to get the vote for good projects over the line.

This is not sending a good message to the communities of projects that have expressed a desire to join OSGeo.

I appreciate that we are all busy, but this lack of response from some of the Incubation Committee is just not good enough.

If you don’t believe the vote deserves to succeed vote -1. Don’t just ignore it!


@OSGeo Board,

I suggest that you have a look at the rationale and the make up of the Incubation Committee and whether it should continue in its current form.


Kind regards,

Bruce

Well colleagues,

I’m very disappointed at the lack of interest shown in this worthy project.

I appreciate that we are all quite busy. Please take the time to review and vote.

We are well short of achieving the required quorum for this motion.

Kind regards,

Bruce

Wow Alex, I think this is one of the most organized applications we have seen!

I will have a look over the long weekend.

Thanks to you and the open data cube team for interest in joining the OSGeo familly.

Hey Folks

As discussed recently in an email thread with Bruce Bannerman<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flists.osgeo.org%2Fpipermail%2Fincubator%2F2021-February%2F004303.html&data=04%7C01%7Csteve.lime%40state.mn.us%7C00ce2f5164e74892ed0708d90b74b5f9%7Ceb14b04624c445198f26b89c2159828c%7C0%7C1%7C637553418176557312%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=efzvvQ%2FNAWucSdD12tSc2QKD0Ucjqfjk4hAVJA%2B9FuM%3D&reserved=0>, I'd like to present an application for the ODC to be recognised as an OSGeo Community Project.

Here's the list:

  1.  Be geospatial
     *   Confirm by checking README or project description
        *   Not explicit in the project README<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fopendatacube%2Fdatacube-core&data=04%7C01%7Csteve.lime%40state.mn.us%7C00ce2f5164e74892ed0708d90b74b5f9%7Ceb14b04624c445198f26b89c2159828c%7C0%7C1%7C637553418176567269%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=SB730EQpXBuxbL8elGNnTyK9lN63y6gAexwXgFqgDY8%3D&reserved=0>.

     *   project page on the osgeo website

     *   We ask projects have some user documentation, for example an OSGeo Live quickstart
        *   The ODC has extensive documentation<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdatacube-core.readthedocs.io%2Fen%2Flatest%2F&data=04%7C01%7Csteve.lime%40state.mn.us%7C00ce2f5164e74892ed0708d90b74b5f9%7Ceb14b04624c445198f26b89c2159828c%7C0%7C1%7C637553418176577226%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=GkciaokrL4ZJa%2ByykI%2Fea1Yyw5nSSiVZjMk4RaTzk7M%3D&reserved=0>, which could always be better, but exist and are good.
  2.  Have a free license or an open source license.
     *   The license must be OSI approved
        *   Apache 2.0 licensed<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fopendatacube%2Fdatacube-core%2Fblob%2Fdevelop%2FLICENSE&data=04%7C01%7Csteve.lime%40state.mn.us%7C00ce2f5164e74892ed0708d90b74b5f9%7Ceb14b04624c445198f26b89c2159828c%7C0%7C1%7C637553418176577226%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000&sdata=EKXzaV5daXXs9q4S6l3FzjvjVnaJLPmLhM%2Ffw8PBfKQ%3D&reserved=0>
