Just going to reply to this one:

>  And while it’s nice that all these University students are creating QGIS
plugins, to Laurențiu point, I’m not sure they should be encourage to add
it to the QGIS registry as most likely those plugins will be abandoned.

What an amazing thing to do in a course! Finally teach open source
practice, rather than just use :)

The thrill and empowerment people get when actually manage to thank them in
release announcement ( even just for testing).  Time and time again I find
people at a foss4g who really benefited, or their employer could see the
value of the work they did, etc…

Rant mode on :)

I am so tired of osgeo board making 1 sided memorandum of understandings
with professional bodies and academic institutions. Sure you could promote
foss4g software; validate it as a legit way  to GIS - not.  Don’t show me
the money show me your people! Do your people even have permission to
contribute to open source? Really? A clear contribution policy or do they
have to ask on a case by case basis etc…

Rant mode off

Download is an arrow, foss4g has to be a circle.
