[Geo4All] Ideas/inputs needed to keep our website news section updated

Thu Oct 19 00:23:09 PDT 2017

Suchith, the website/rebranding project is almost complete :)

If I understand correctly http://opensourcegeospatial.icaci.org  is a feed
of news items, kind of like http://planet.osgeo.org? It must be technically
possible since the http://osgeo.getinteractive.nl lists community news, but
not I do not know personally how to set this up.

Two ideas:

1) I have made an "enhancement" bug ticket here
https://github.com/OSGeo/osgeo/issues/143 (it is an enhancement as it is a
new idea, not part of the scope of work we asked the vendor to do).

2) Fill in this, and any other ideas, in the survey form that is sent
around. I will send this out after the OSGeo elections.

I am glad to see GeoForAll getting ready to take advantage of the new
website. I understand there was some instruction on a newsletter email sign
up tool?
