Release day has been set to April 13th for ZOO Kernel, ZOO-Services and ZOO-API and the release number will be 1.0.0 (Gerald) or 1.0 (Nicolas). The software license will be MIT/X11, but the companies GeoLabs, and ZOO-API will be copyright holder.
Vote for release ZOO Kernel, ZOO Services and ZOO API Nicolas BOZON: +1 Jeff McKenna: +1 Gérald Fenoy: +1 Daniel Kastl: +1 Venkatesh Raghavan: +1 Hayashi: +1
- ZOO-Booth at FOSS4G2010 and Funding for ZOO-Promotions in 2010
A ZOO booth at FOSS4G 2010 has been seen as too much time consuming and expensive. Instead the focus for publicity should be on t-shirts, brochures, demos, Live USB sticks and other promotional goods, but it has been postponed to the next meeting to vote about it. Until then ideas and budget for promotional goods should be discussed in the mailing list.
Vote for NO ZOO-Booth at FOSS4G 2010 Nicolas BOZON: +1 Jeff McKenna: +1 Gérald Fenoy: +1 Daniel Kastl: +1 Venkatesh Raghavan: +1 Hayashi: +1
- Discuss about preparing document for PSC guidelines
Daniel Kastl proposed to take the pgRouting PSC guideline (based on Mapserver PSC) as a base, and he and Venkatesh Raghavan will work on the document and make changes where necessary and simplify where possible.
Vote for modified version of the pgRouting PSC guideline and place them in TRAC wiki or SVN: Nicolas BOZON: +1 Jeff McKenna: +1 Gérald Fenoy: +1 Daniel Kastl: +1 Venkatesh Raghavan: +1 Hayashi: +1
- About Using IRC Channel for future meetings
Jeff McKenna and Daniel Kastl are in favor of using IRC (#zoo-project channel) to make PSC meetings transparent and available also for non-PSC members. Others don't care as long as it works. The only issue seems to be, if there is an IRC client available for Hayashi-san's Android phone. Until this isn't clarified Skype will be used.
Votes for using IRC instead of Skype Nicolas BOZON: +0 Jeff McKenna: +1 Gérald Fenoy: +0 Daniel Kastl: +1 Venkatesh Raghavan: +0
- Next meeting schedule
The schedule as below was decided on the ZOO-PSC ML http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?year=2010&month=4&day=21&hour=13&min=0&sec=0
- Post meeting clarifications on ZOO-PSC ML
Venka: As agreed upon in the PSC ML before the March PSC Meeting, ZOO-Kernel will be licensed under MIT/X11. ZOO-API may also be released under same MIT/X11 license.
Nick: ZOO Kernel and ZOO API will be both released under MIT/X-11 according to plans, as Kernel was coded from scratch by GeoLabs?, and API was coded from scratch by 3LIZ.
