Motion to provide Trac/SVN/Mailman services to GeoPrisma

[Daniel Morissette]

I hereby motion for OSGeo to provide Trac, SVN and Mailman services for
the GeoPrisma project, with Alan Boudreault as primary admin for the
setup and support of the services.

... and I start with my +1

More about GeoPrisma:

GeoPrisma is an access control layer that sits between client Web
Mapping applications based on MapFish/GeoExt/OpenLayers and standard
services running on the server (WMS, WFS, FeatureServer, TileCache,
etc). The actual implementation is a proxy server that validates all
service requests against an Access Control List, and also builds/adapts
the user interface to match the privileges of the user currently viewing
the application.

The project is currently developed in collaboration between Mapgears,
Boreal-IS and Nippour Geomatik and has been deployed at several client
sites already. The release of GeoPrisma under an Open Source (BSD)
licence will be announced at FOSS4G next week as part of our
presentation about the project:
http://2009.foss4g.org/presentations/#presentation_146

Since the project provides the glue for access control between several
OSGeo components, we believe it is a good fit to be hosted at OSGeo, and
we also plan on applying for incubation once the project has taken off
and gained some momentum.

There is no public site for the project yet (we plan on opening up
http://www.geoprisma.org/ after the announcement), but a demo and more
information is available at http://dev4g.mapgears.com/geoprisma/demo/

Ticket #490 has already been created about this:

Hi Everyone,

This motion has passed with +1 from DanielM, FrankW, ShawnB and AlanB.

I believe the next step is to forward this motion to the board, which
I'm doing now, and if no objections are raised within a couple of days
then we can move ahead.

Daniel

Daniel,
this is just to confirm that I saw this message, looked into the project
and believe it is very worthwhile to support. No objections.

Best regards,
Arnulf.
