[geomoose-psc] Fwd: Starting conversation about linking GeoMOOSE.org to GeoMOOSE.com

[Basques, Bob (CI-StPaul)]

Hi Eli,

I’m open on this, but would like to set a scheduled date for the linking.  With the new OSGeo Site up and running I wanted to get this into place even sooner than this, but you know how it goes.  Anyway. Jim and I had discussed putting the link into the right side menu, Just above the Table of Contents.

What do you want to discuss?  The COM site is pretty self explanatory (I think) in trying to promote GeoMoose, etc.

Sorry for the delay.  I've now looked at the site somewhat thoroughly

Despite the long delay to get to the discussion, can we hold off on
voting and discuss?


The plan right now, is to add it to the right side menu list.


Where to link might require a few tries to get it how we like, but
that can be an ongoing process.

All,

This has been brought up a couple of times in the recent past, and I’m
moving on it again to get a concensus about putting it into place.

There now exists a GeoMOOSE.com website in all it’s glory, which has been
put together for what I think are obvious reasons,  and with the new OSGeo
site coming online in the near future (5days!), now seems like a good time
to move on setting up a linking system, and I’m proposing that we officially
link to it from the GeoMOOSE,org site, and in a prominent location.   This
doesn’t need to be a permanent thing by any means, but the idea of
supporting, handling outreach and marketing tasks can be handled better in
an independent way in this companion website.

Please take a look at the .com site and vote yes or no on adding a link to
the GeoMOOSE.org site.  My initial thought is to set up a “Support” or
“Commercial” link in the top banner tool bar that goes to the .com site.  We
can talk about how to list valid(ated) support organizations as well.  My
first thought is that a list will end up on the .com side, but this is just
a starting point idea from myself.  Let the rest of the PSC know your
thoughts.  This site was created is being managed by SharedGeo currently,
and was put together to facilitate better outreach and marketing.


Thanks

bobb
