[mapserver-dev] MS-RFC-116 call for discussion: service provider page

[Daniel Morissette]

Good afternoon,

One of the items that was discussed by the MapServer team at the Paris 
OSGeo code sprint was the addition of a service providers page to the 
website to make it easier for users and service providers to meet.

Since the question of who should be listed or not can sometimes be 
tricky, we did some research of what other OSGeo projects did, and came 
up with what sounded to us like a straightforward and reasonable 
approach that is documented in MS-RFC-116:

http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-116.html

We invite you to review and discuss the RFC, and we can hopefully vote 
on it sometimes next week.

A draft of the proposed service providers page is already available at 
the following URL to support the discussion, but it is not linked from 
any page on the main site yet:

Thanks
