Minutes

  • Edouard Choniere, new core contributor and github maintainer, joined the meeting and introduced himself to PSC. Welcome @echoix!
  • Past minutes action points:
    • VP spoke to Michael Smith and opencollective profile is fixed
    • A PSC motion and request is needed so OSGeo treasurer adds OSGeo credit card to weblate, MN's personal card is beeing used now.
    • Motion: Ask OSGeo to put their credit card on weblate instead of MN's personal one.
      • motion passed (8/9)
  • Budget
    • Not clear if OSGeo will approve our request yet, apparently they'll give only 3k per project. We requested 5k for the project and 5k from the sprint funds for a community meeting.
  • Student grants:
    • Anna suggested to remove deadlines to apply and keep the call open instead, suggesting a desired timing or dates when PSC will assess the proposals.
    • Linda's work on the history pane is going very well.
  • Events
    • Who goes where?
      • FOSSGIS.de March 2024 in Hamburg (MN)
      • TNGIC April (Vero-Caitlin)
      • FOSS4G-Europe July 2024 in Tartu (Vero)
      • FOSS4G World in Brazil (Vero?)
    • Community meeting date:
      • Second half of June or second half of July; suggested dates: 14/06 until 19/06, 21/06 until 26/06, or 12/07 until 17/07.
      • Martin will check with CTU again, but we can anyway try to search/think of other places. NCSU place in Prague seems not available/difficult to get (?).
      • We'll continue discussions and definitions via email.
  • Releases:
    • 8.3.2: MN suggests to release asap as it is overdue
      • Point releases every 3-4 months
    • 8.4.0: MN suggests to release it end of Feb
      • New changes in GUI need testing before release, MN did and will heavily test it
      • Prepare for 8.4.1 in case of emergency
      • There are a lot of macOS fixes, better experience than 8.3
      • Merge Linda’s work and location-to-project rename
  • Github access rights/permissions:
    • Now 14 people have write access, inactive (less than 25 commits in last year) svn access people are restricted, new rules for merging (review is required from someone with write access), merging requires passing at least some checks and all conversations solved.
    • The idea of auto-merge is to merge ahead of time as long as all requirements are met.
    • Update with merge or rebase work, but merge is preferred because all is preserved.
    • Document this somewhere, e.g. contributing.md.
