[OSGeo-Discuss] redirecting GeoforAll website development

[Tom Roche]

suggestion: move development (and discussion) of these tasks to online projects at one of "the usual" development sites (e.g., Bitbucket, GitHub, GitLab, SourceForge)[1].

>> we need more to help with the GeoforAll website developments.

>> Our community has provided a wishlist of things to do

Is that wishlist online? If so, could you point to that?

>> it is now our responsibility to provide some help [with, e.g.:]

>> 1. Develop a digital display board for presentations/posters of students from all our labs to be uploaded and displayed at the website.

>> 2. [Create] a template [for Open Source Geospatial Lab websites] that everyone can make use of [including those] who dont have web development expertise.

>> 3. Develop reporting tools for the labs

The 3 tasks above seem fairly orthogonal. Perhaps someone with the appropriate project authority @ Southampton (i.e., to legitimately administer each project) could start one project per item above (at one or more of "the usual" development sites[1]), and post links? Then the community could start contributing and commenting at those locations (possibly augmented by project-specific maillists[2]).
