[OSGeo-Discuss] [Journal] OSGeo Journal - Call for Contributions

[b.j.kobben at utwente.nl]

Hi Landon,

Just a reminder that the Academic Track committee of FOSS4G2014 is at the moment doing a final review round to determine where each Academic Track paper is to be published (if anywhere). Some of those might come up for the OSGEO Journal, as of yet we do not know if there's enough to fill a special issue or maybe we just have a few in a regular issue.  We hope to have the selection and final editing before Christmas, so that 'production' could start in 2015.

Yours,
Barend Köbben

We are getting ready to (finally) publish the annual report for 2012. I'm going to experiment with a slimmer journal published bi-monthly or quarterly instead of once a year.

We'll start this experiment with a Fall 2014 Issue of the Journal.

I invite Chapters, Software Projects, and Committees to submit reports just like they normally do for the Annual Report. This round of submittals can cover activities from January 2013 to September 2014.

I'll also need a volunteer for an interview. Please don't be shy.

If you want to contribute a topical article or tutorial for this issue, that would also help. I'd like to get submissions by October 31. I'll plan on publishing by the middle of November.

You can send your articles directly to me (sunburned.surveyor at gmail.com<mailto:sunburned.surveyor at gmail.com>) or to the Newsletter mailing list. All we need is your word processing document and any photos or graphics. We will take care of the rest.

I really appreciate the help and support.

Thanks!

Landon
