Oh now it is.  Maybe I was looking at it in the middle of a site rebuild.  When I was looking at it it gave a 404 error.

 

Okay +1 from me.

Right now it’s mentioned about geostyler.org website, but that website currently gives a 404.

Are there plans to make that live soon?

 

I think it should have a live website before we graduate it as an OSGeo Project.

 

As a side note, there is a request to create geostyle.osgeo.org.  I’m finding this step useless busy work.

I’m not sure what it adds and is just extra work for SAC to maintain these redirects.  I think we should remove this step from this and future requests for graduation.

 

Thanks,

Regina
