Many thanks Jody for all your work and efforts on the OSGeo website rebranding. It is truly huge efforts. The new website is looking very good.

Yes,  http://opensourcegeospatial.icaci.org  can be a feed of news items to the new GeoForAll community news in the new website (along with any other appropriate sources). That way all the new developments are constantly updated in the new website.

btw I might have somehow missed your mail on survey form you mentioned. Will it be possible to resend it when you get time . Thanks.

Best wishes,

Suchith

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?

Dear All,

As we are moving to new website, it is good timing to plan ideas on best way to keep the website news updated.

For example - is it possible to link the updates from  http://opensourcegeospatial.icaci.org  for the new GeoForAll news section? Can anyone in the OSGeo web team advise us on this?


Also we have lot of latest updates in our monthly newsletter that can be added to keep the section updated. But we need  volunteers for this. So please come forward if you are able to help. Thanks.

Best wishes,

Suchith

Charlie- you are right and thanks for bring this to our attention. It is good timing  to plan ideas to keep news updates as we are now working to move to new website. Our current website is developed and hosted thanks to Jason and colleagues at the University of Southampton. I want to publicly thank the huge effort and help that Jason did to setup our website. It has been one of the greatest help for getting us bring together our global community and give us voice.

I was planning to email Jody, Peter , Helena, Jason on the website migration  (including our domain name etc) and your mail made me put this as priority and I will send the email today.

Roberto Santos (University of Nottingham) has keen kindly helping us with the website updates but he is very busy now (Few months back , he and his wife welcomed their new son ).   Roberto is also busy finishing up his thesis writing, so I  am requesting for new volunteers to help us with the website updates. Please let us know if you are able to help.

Best wishes,

Suchith

Really nice job Nikos and collaborators!

BTW, I notice on the current GeoForAll.org page, the right side news is very old, referencing the "new April 2016 newsletter" and other older items. Perhaps those should be updated to newer material?
Not sure who is responsible for that... thanks whoever it is!
