Hello,

I would like to make the motion to generate a doi for the OSGeoLive 
project.

Peter Löwe talked about it at the AGM and the MOSS and GRASS GIS 
projects have a dio already.

See minute 57 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=daXH-fcvrOg

A doi would provide a unique reference to our project and it does not 
cost anything. It also referes to the contributors.

DOI  GRASS Projekt: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5559460
DOI  MOSS https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5140319

Peter would help with the generation. He suggested to create the doi as 
he would liket to refer to OSGeoLive in a book. He is working on an Open 
Source GIS chapter for the new version of the book Springer Handbuchs 
Geoinformation 
(https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-540-72680-7).

So here is my motion: motion to generate a doi for the OSGeoLive project

Or shall we discuss first.

I am curious about your thoughts.

Astrid
