Hi Qgis community:

I don't know if you have seen this proposal but please take a look and
consider committing to it if you haven't already. I think it will be a
great resource.

<canned_message>
I'm supporting a proposal to create a new Q&A website for programmers,
DBAs, Cartographers, Geographers and anyone interested in GIS
professionally.

It's built on the same software as stackoverflow.com, a hugely popular
site where over seven million programmers help each other with difficult
programming problems. On Stack Overflow the audience votes for the best
answer, so the answer you want is usually right at the top, not on page
five.

I'm hoping that a site for programmers, DBAs, Cartographers, Geographers
and anyone interested in GIS professionally would have the same kind of
network effect and turn into an amazing resource.

The proposal process is going on here:

If you're interested in participating, go to that URL and click on the
green "Commit" button.

Thanks!
