[Qgis-psc] Questions on website

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Alessandro,

Yes, would be an option. We also have some budget for sysadmin work in our
IT infrastructure. However, for the long run I think we should also find a
mix with some volunteers (esp. also for improving the content of the
website). Otherwise, I fear that it won't be sustainable to only rely on
paid work.

Can you ping us (PSC) again after the release when you would have time
working on the website?

Thanks,
Andreas
