[GRASS-user] PSC: nomination process (Confirm with nominee before posting)

Hey everyone.

I like to see the number of nominations that are coming through my mailbox.

This is just a reminder that before nominating someone publicly, please drop them an e-mail asking if you coan nominate them.

I have been receiving some e-mails from people confused and unhappy they were added to the list without consent.

This can be as easy as

Buddy 1: Hey buddy 2, I think you would be great to help out on the GRASS project Steering Committee. Can I nominate you?

Buddy 2: It sounds scarry but Yes! I’m up for the challenge

Buddy 1: It sounds like it would be a pretty good exerience. It’s only scarry cause its new. I’ll let that obnoxious PSC guy know you’re interested and he’ll put your name on the list.

=======================================

Then I figure if the person gets +5 then they are in.

But lets make sure people agree to being nominated otherwise the numbers mean nothing. And a bunch of DECLINES make the process look bad

REMINDER: to those of you on the list that have not ACCEPTED or REJECTED your nomination please let me know.

Cheers

Since I've finally got r.cva to work, I've set up some links to what I've been doing. My intent was analyze a location for photography of an event, namely a rather large blast of explosive in the Nevada desert known as Divine Blast. [OK, let's keep politics out of this.]

I hiked to a spot that had a view of ground zero, which I determined with Garmin mapsource and some hacking. Here are two panoramic photographs that I made of the area, one with a 50mm lens, and another with a 400mm lens.

If you have google earth installed (and why don't you!), load this file
www.lazygranch.com/images/temp/mtstir_2.kmz

If you click on blastview, google earth will alter the tilt of the display. The red areas are what is visible. At the tilt used, you can see how elements of the terrain blocks the view, i.e. long swaths of yellow behind a red hill.

On http://sourceforge.net/projects/hugin it reads the license is GPL.

What do you mean Paolo?
