[Journal] Current interest level in OSGeo Journal?

[Christian Willmes]

Hi Peter,

this is a great idea, Copernicus is a legit an well renowned publisher. 
But I am kind of pessimistic, that they would take the OSGeo Journal, 
because it was dormant this quite long time now...?

But if this would be possible this would be a very good solution in my 
opinion.

Best regards
Christian

Copernicus handles a lot of publishing and other matters for EGU (european AGU equivalent) and is very open to all things Open and FAIR.

>> Thanks for the ideas and offers of help (we'll probably need it especially from people more familiar with Zenodo).  I think this is what we need to do to responsibly put the Journal into dormancy.    Before we jump to that, do we want to shop for a new home and interest for the Journal?  My ideas on that are to email the Discuss list and to try connecting in the GeoForAll effort.  Are there any other ideas to continue the Journal that we should explore before putting into dormancy? I'm happy to send the Discuss email.  Helena, I think that you (and maybe Markus and Barend) are somewhat involved in the GeoForAll effort.  Could you see if there is interest there or find the appropriate person to check into that?  The Journal could be reorganized within GeoForAll if there is interest.
