GeoTools Contributor Agreement
Ben has questions on the gt2 mailing list
Ben checking with his management
Check with Google if Apache contributor agreement works
Compare with Eclipse?
Other possible candidates? (just for completeness sake):
http://www.eclipse.org/legal/committer_process/EclipseIndividualCommitterAgreementFinal.pdf
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contributor_License_Agreement
Apache being very popular should ease things.
Apache contributor agreement license?
ACTION: Ben to ask Frank for suggestions as to acceptable agreements
2.3-RC1 - bug fixing and volunteers
Feb 21th: 2.3-RC1 is out
Bug fixing going on, please participate
Missing: volunteer to make the releases, 2.3-RC1 and 2.2.5
If you have time, please try out the new features and report back
ACTION: Ben and Andrea to ask around
Meeting attendance going down
First we lost Justin, now Jody too… hmm…
Christian and Gabriel are also in the useful “time zone”
Do we have to adjust meeting time?
Anything else that we can do? Suggestion welcomed!!
Good for incubation, need to let OSGeo know
Dotted all i’s, crossed all t’s
ACTION: Jody let OSGeo know we’re good :-p
2.3.x docs, where are they published?
stable → 2.2.x
latest → master
2.3.x going no-where?
I’d say, keep it that way until 2.3.0 goes out?
XSLT module graduation
Graduate it to extension status:
- maintainer: check (Andrea Aime)
- tests: check
- docs: check
- code coverage: check (82%)
ACTION: Andrea is going to make a GSIP
From the user list trenches
Jukka: full feature count for WFS is a good one to have, even if slightly out of the standard spec
Kosmo GIS is getting a good WFS transactional client (probably the best one, tested against GeoServer, TinyOWS and Deegree)
