Description
Hi,
the talk submission system for the FOSS4G will have a way to login with your GitHub account. This kind of authentication is always linked to a certain account. As that account should be as trustworthy as possible, it would be great if it could be the official OSGeo GitHub account.
I'll provide the details which callback URL it will be soon.
I just wanted to let you know now, so that you can decide if that's possible or not.
Cheers,
Volker

The conference software is pretalx.
The GitHub documentation to add a new OAuth app is here: https://developer.github.com/apps/building-oauth-apps/creating-an-oauth-app/
I meant the OSGeo GitHub organisation.
The values I'd use:
- Application name: Talk Submissions FOSS4G 2019
- Homepage URL: https://talks.2019.foss4g.org/
- Application description: Talk Submission System for the Global FOSS4G 2019 in Bucharest
- Authorization callback URL: https://talks.2019.foss4g.org/auth/github/login/callback/

Any news? I think the submission system should go live soon and it would be great if people could sign in with their GitHub account.

I setup the oauth application in the OSGeo github org. Please attempt to configure your submission system and test. You might need the client ID or client secret, if so let me know and I'll figure out how to share that to you.

Thanks a lot! Yes, I'd need the client ID and the secret. We could use a PGP encrypted to the email address I just saved in my preferences or https://keybase.io/vmx (or somehow else, you can catch my on freenode as "vmx".

I couldn't find a PGP key for you easily, so I put a copy of the information on our secure server, hop in #osgeo-sac and ask someone to get you the information. Thanks, Alex

Key was delivered via encrypted message. As far as I know this is working.
Can you provide more details on 1. what software, 2. the github account integration documentation. I don't think there is an OSGeo github account, just a Github organization, but we can look into that once we better understand how this works.
