[mapguide-users] Accepting applications to join the MapGuide PSC

[Jackie Ng]

Hi All,

In light of recent events, we are looking to rebuild the MapGuide Project
Steering Committee (PSC) so that it truly reflects and serves the needs of
this community going forward.

The MapGuide PSC needs to have 8 fully active members on it. Therefore, we
currently have 2-3 vacant spots on the PSC that need to be filled in.

To be part of the MapGuide PSC means you have a stake or interest in the
direction of the MapGuide Open Source project going forward. If you are
interested in joining the MapGuide PSC, please reply indicating your
interest.

- Jackie

Hi Jackie

Can you describe a bit more what kind of work is done by the PSC and how
much time each month is normally used for the work? Any special skills
required or "nice to have"?

Best regards
Hans Milling...

Hi Hans,

That's a good question.

You can find out about what the formal duties of the MapGuide PSC are on
this (finally updated!) page:

https://mapguide.osgeo.org/psc.html

In practice, the PSC's primary duty is to comment (if they are able to) and
vote to adopt (implement) or reject any RFCs (Request For Comment) that come
through the mapguide-internals mailing list. Although most MapGuide RFCs in
the past few years have all come from myself, anyone can submit and RFC and
it is the duty of the PSC to provide feedback (where possible) and to vote
on it when the time comes to motion for a vote.

I don't think there is really a dedicated amount of time every month one
must dedicate to the PSC. My belief is simply if there is an RFC or
discussion that comes up on the mapguide-internals mailing list that
requires the attention of the PSC, that members are able to
reply/comment/vote within a reasonable time frame.

Knowledge of the MapGuide codebase is not a pre-requisite for being a PSC
member, but it is a "nice to have" as it would give valuable insight when it
comes to any PSC/RFC discussions. If there were any pre-requisites a
prospective PSC member must have in my eyes, it's simply experience in
MapGuide as a user, as a MG application developer, as a MG core developer,
etc. The more angles of experience you have in the MapGuide platform, the
better. But that's just my own personal opinion.

Hope that answers your questions.

- Jackie

I will also add to this (in terms of duties) that our desirable PSC member
should also have the ability to liase with OSGeo on any organizational
matters.

MapGuide Open Source is after all, a project under the OSGeo organizational
umbrella.

Hi Jackie,

Thanks for posting that link and giving extra details about what the work
would entail. I couldn't find any information about how to go about
proposing a candidature for the PSC.

It's something that I would be interested in, considering Mapguide has been
part of my professional life since version 6.3 and ActiveX controls!

Hi Benoit,

Since I'm just "winging this" whole thing anyways in the absence of formal
documented processes, I'd say just introduce yourself in the
mapguide-internals mailing list, give us a brief bio of your
experience/background with the MapGuide platform and any companion
technologies like FDO or any companion commercial geospatial products
(active or defunct) from Autodesk.

And a few days after that one of us in the existing PSC can put together a
motion to vote on your candidacy.

- Jackie
