[Geoserver-devel] Commercial support, requirements to move terrestris to experienced providers

Hi list,

we from terrestris would love to be listed in the “Experienced Providers” section on the “GeoServer Commercial Support” page, right now we are listed under “Additional Services” (http://geoserver.org/support/).

We think we qualify as being a provider that meets the requirements as they are currently listed: “The commercial providers in this category have not done major contributions directly to the GeoServer project, but they are trusted as reliable organizations with experience around GeoServer. They are more recommended for those looking for local support, and can grow to become core contributors.” We tried in 2017 (https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver.github.io/pull/56), and eventually this attempt came to a stop in 2018 and 2020.

Nonetheless I would like to start again, and will gladly provide a pull request, if you think we qualify.

Here are some of the things with / around GeoServer we did (and will very likely continue):

There might be more that we are doing, but the above is already quite a thing, I think.

What else do you think we should do, to move up in that “hierarchy” of commercial support providers? I can of course come up with a pull request anytime.

We would really gladly help this awesome project wherever you think this is a good idea.

Kind regards,

Marc

+1 here, I guess this is something to discuss at the recurrent meetings…

Maybe you can also prepare a PR for the site to help expedite the process? :slight_smile:

I appreciate the details (and am very much a fan of GeoStyler and SHOGun), you can see some more discussion in the meeting notes.

I am +1 based on the community module (would loved to see if it is active), docker participation, and community outreach activities.

In general I look towards a contribution to GeoServer sustainability, but really would like to see experienced providers be comfortable PRs and our proposal process (so they can demonstrate the capacity to do new development work on behalf of their customers.)

I understand that our current breakdown of service providers is not as clear as it could be.

Hi Marc,
happy to see this request, and that it contains a list of items all related to community involvement
and support, that’s exactly what I want to see.

I was just starting to wonder about geostyler community module liveliness:
the module has not been touched in well over a year and still depends on GeoStyler 4.3,
but I see there are a number of more recent releases. Glad to hear you have plans to keep it up to date.

+1 on graduation to “experienced provider”

Cheers
Andrea

Hi Jody,

thanks for your feedback and the kind words.

I have read the notes and also talked to Nils who was there in person. Further comments inline.

We plan on dedicating more time to the plugin, ad have already started rviewing the current situation, fyi e.g. here: https://github.com/geostyler/geostyler/discussions/1324

In general I look towards a contribution to GeoServer sustainability, but really would like to see experienced providers be comfortable PRs and our proposal process (so they can demonstrate the capacity to do new development work on behalf of their customers.)

We’ll try our best.

I understand that our current breakdown of service providers is not as clear as it could be.

No worries, I understood that this is likely to improve.

Thanks,
