<p>Wiki-Wegmann: </p> <hr /> <div>The [http://www.osgeo.org/journal '''OSGeo Journal'''] is a publication highlighting open source projects, news, event and other OSGeo Foundation updates. This is the working page for the Journal project and its future editions. See the official [http://www.osgeo.org/journal/ OSGeo Journal homepage] for links to the published journal and articles.<br /> <br /> [[Journal Volume 4]] is in preparation, edit [[Journal Volume 5]] page if you would like to submit an article. An editor will contact you when it is time to prepare for the publication.<br /> <br /> == Content Sections and Editors ==<br /> The Journal has several volunteers that collect, edit, format articles and design/proof layout. Because layout is currently done using [http://www.latex-project.org/ LaTeX], more volunteers familiar with it are always appreciated.

<p>Wiki-Wegmann: /* Short description of content */ reduced interview words a bit</p> <hr /> <div>'''OSGeo News''' is the working title for the official OSGeo Newsletter. This is the summary page for the project and for developing future editions.<br /> <br /> * Current version is under development: [[Newsletter Volume 1]]<br /> <br /> <br /> == Background ==<br /> OSGeo News builds on top of the successful history of the [http://grass.itc.it/newsletter/index.php GRASS-News] production. [http://osgeo.org/files/news/GRASS_OSGeo_News_vol4.pdf Volume 4] (5.8MB) of that production was a joint GRASS/OSGeo effort. The next edition is broader and branded as OSGeo News.<br /> <br /> == Editions ==<br /> * [http://osgeo.org/files/news/GRASS_OSGeo_News_vol4.pdf GRASS/OSGeo-News Volume 4] (5.8MB)<br /> * OSGeo News Volume 1 ([[Newsletter_Volume_1]] - in development)<br /> <br /> == Content Outline ==<br /> This is the typical outline for an edition:<br /> # Editorials<br /> # News<br /> # Event Reports (2-3 articles)<br /> # Project Spotlight (Introductions) (1-2 articles)<br /> # Case Studies (2-3 articles)<br /> # Integration Studies (2-3 articles)<br /> # Topical Studies (1-2 articles)<br /> # Programming Tutorials (2-3 tutorials)<br /> # Interviews (1-2 people)<br /> # Developer Announcements<br /> <br /> === Short description of content ===<br /> Suggested max. length of articles in brackets. Page counts are based on output in newsletter format. Word counts assume several images, about 1.5 per page.<br /> <br /> * Editorials: written by Edt. in Chief or/and well-known person - (1 page)<br /> * News: past 6 months and next 3 months, just keywords/URL/date - (all short notes: 1 page)<br /> * Event Reports: Brief article about meetings/conferences etc. - (1/2 page per report or 750 words)<br /> * Project Introductions: General introduction to one software project or particular new features of a project - (3 pages, 1500 words)<br /> * Case Studies: Highlighting specific application of technologies to a certain problem, user community or developer needs - (3 pages, 1500 words)<br /> * Integration Studies: Articles showing how many projects can work together in an integrated fashion, e.g. the power of GRASS, QGIS and GDAL all working together - (5 pages, 2500 words)<br /> * Topical Studies: Introductions to concepts and theories, e.g. what something means, how to work with certain types of things - (3 pages, 1500 words)<br /> * Programming Tutorials: Tutorials showing how to use a library or application at a programmatic level - (3 pages, 1500 words)<br /> * Interviews: Introducing open source community members or organisations - (1-2 pages, 1000 words)<br /> * Developer Announcements: Announcements about recent changes/improvements to projects - (0.5 - 1 page, 750 words)<br /> <br /> == Production Team ==<br /> Typical needs include volunteers to collect, edit, format articles and design/proof layout. Because layout is done using LaTeX, volunteers familiar with it are always appreciated. By having several editors and categories we spread the word out and reduce the overall load for each volunteer.<br /> <br /> Each editor is in charge of:<br /> <br /> * looking through submitted articles<br /> * doing a brief review and perhaps fwd. them to another more experienced user/developer or other Reviewer<br /> * asking certain projects to submit articles (for volumes covering one subject)<br /> * check for layout errors, so that the final files can easily be merged with all other sections<br /> * optionally converting content to LaTeX if needed<br /> <br /> === Team Positions ===<br /> <br /> * '''Newsletter Chair''': [[User:Tmitchell | Tyler Mitchell]] <br /> ** Announcing new vol./call for articles; announce release dates<br /> * '''Editor in Chief''': [[User:Tmitchell | Tyler Mitchell]] <br /> ** Merging all sections, check for final version, asking all editors to submit final versions, etc.<br /> * '''Editor, News''': Jason Fournier<br /> ** Compiling general new items from past 6 months<br /> * '''Editor, Project Spotlights''': [[User:Wegmann | Martin Wegmann]]<br /> ** Solicit, collect, edit and reformat content<br /> * '''Editor, Case Studies''': [mailto:micha@arava.co.il Micha Silver]<br /> * '''Editor, Integration Studies''': [[User:Wegmann | Martin Wegmann]]<br /> * '''Editor, Programming Tutorials''': Landon Blake<br /> * '''Layout/Design''': Kevin Yam<br /> ** Designing and changing look and feel of publication<br /> <br /> === Open Positions ===<br /> Interested in helping? This section lists current positions that need filling. If you have other interests, you are also welcome to add them for discussion.<br /> * '''Editor, Event Reports''' - Compiling information about OSGeo-related events and to find summary reports that could be included as part of the newsletter<br /> * '''Editor, Topical Studies'''<br /> * '''Spell/grammer-checker'''<br /> * '''Reviewers''' - You have particular expertise and can review certain kinds of articles for content. Somewhat like a peer reviewer too, so logical questions can be turned back to authors if needed.<br /> * '''Formating/Conversion''' - moving non-LaTeX content into LaTeX forms (each author/section Edt.has to check for latex errors etc.)<br /> * '''Sponsor''' - interested in sponsoring the newsletter creation?<br /> <br /> == Reviewers ==<br /> <br /> Please list yourself below with name, e-mail and field of expertise to review certain articles - individual editors will contact you if necessary:<br /> <br /> * [mailto:sunburned.surveyor@gmail.com Landon Blake] - Coordinate Geometry, Geodesy, Surveying, Applications of GIS to Public Works and Parcel/Cadastral Records Management<br /> * [mailto:micha@arava.co.il Micha Silver] - Using GIS and GPS in agricultural pest control projects; watershed analysis<br /> <br /> == Submission of articles ==<br /> <br /> Your article should be written in [http://www.latex-project.org/ Latex]. For instructions which format/style shall be used, please have a look at this working [http://grass.itc.it/newsletter/GRASSnewsletter_template.tar.gz GRASS Newsletter Latex] template. If you do not know Latex yet, don't be scared as it is quite easy.

At their discretion, editors can choose to help you convert your content into a suitable format for publishing.<br /> <br /> == Newsletter Software ==<br /> <br /> Based on GRASS-News (which was based on R News) Latex is recommended, but other publishing packages might be considered for forthcoming issues. (For example, [http://www.scribus.net Scribus] has been recommended.)<br /> <br /> Contributors ought to submit articles in Latex and images as pdf (high res jpg is fine as well, kim (inside kde) can convert them easily to pdf):<br /> <br /> '''links to templates will go here'''<br /> * template for article<br /> ** template for inserting images<br /> ** template for inserting tables<br /> <br /> They can be copied from [http://grass.itc.it/newsletter/GRASSnewsletter_template.tar.gz GRASS-News LaTex template].<br /> <br /> == Process ==<br /> # Confirm editors/volunteers<br /> # Set deadlines<br /> # Solicit articles<br /> # Collect/edit/review articles<br /> # Format to LaTeX<br /> # Produce draft<br /> # Set deadline for review<br /> # Revisions<br /> # Final production<br /> # Press Release and promotion<br /> <br /> [[Category:Newsletter]]</div>

<p>Wiki-Wegmann: /* Short description of content */ suggested max. article length</p> <hr /> <div>'''OSGeo News''' is the working title for the official OSGeo Newsletter. This is the summary page for the project and for developing future editions.<br /> <br /> * Current version is under development: [[Newsletter Volume 1]]<br /> <br /> <br /> == Background ==<br /> OSGeo News builds on top of the successful history of the [http://grass.itc.it/newsletter/index.php GRASS-News] production. [http://osgeo.org/files/news/GRASS_OSGeo_News_vol4.pdf Volume 4] (5.8MB) of that production was a joint GRASS/OSGeo effort. The next edition is broader and branded as OSGeo News.<br /> <br /> == Submission of articles ==<br /> <br /> Your article should be written in [http://www.latex-project.org/ Latex]. For instructions which format/style shall be used, please have a look at this working [http://grass.itc.it/newsletter/GRASSnewsletter_template.tar.gz GRASS Newsletter Latex] template. If you do not know Latex yet, don't be scared as it is quite easy. You might want to have a look at the [http://www.stdout.org/~winston/latex/ Latex Cheat Sheet] to get to know a few commands, e.g. how to enumerate, make tables etc.<br /> Please send your zipped document to the respective Editors (see below).<br /> <br /> <br /> == Editions ==<br /> * [http://osgeo.org/files/news/GRASS_OSGeo_News_vol4.pdf GRASS/OSGeo-News Volume 4] (5.8MB)<br /> * OSGeo News Volume 1 ([[Newsletter_Volume_1]] - in development)<br /> <br /> == Content Outline ==<br /> This is the typical outline for an edition:<br /> # Editorials<br /> # News<br /> # Event Reports (2-3 articles)<br /> # Project Spotlight (Introductions) (1-2 articles)<br /> # Case Studies (2-3 articles)<br /> # Integration Studies (2-3 articles)<br /> # Topical Studies (1-2 articles)<br /> # Programming Tutorials (2-3 tutorials)<br /> # Interviews (1-2 people)<br /> # Developer Announcements<br /> <br /> === Short description of content ===<br /> Suggested max. length of articles in brackets.<br /> <br /> * Editorials: written by Edt. in Chief or/and well-known person - (1 page)<br /> * News: past 6 months and next 3 months, just keywords/URL/date - (all short notes: 1 page)<br /> * Event Reports: Brief article about meetings/conferences etc. - (1/2 page per report)<br /> * Project Introductions: General introduction to one software project or particular new features of a project - (3 pages)<br /> * Case Studies: Highlighting specific application of technologies to a certain problem, user community or developer needs - (3 pages)<br /> * Integration Studies: Articles showing how many projects can work together in an intergrated fashion, e.g. the power of GRASS, QGIS and GDAL all working together - (5 pages)<br /> * Programming Tutorials: Tutorials showing how to use a library or application at a programmatic level - (3 pages)<br /> * Interviews: Introducing open source community members or organisations - (1-2 pages)<br /> * Developer Announcements: Announcements about recent changes/improvements to projects - (1/2 pages)<br /> <br /> == Positions ==<br /> Typical needs include volunteers to collect, edit, format articles and design/proof layout. Because layout is done using LaTeX, volunteers familiar with it are always appreciated. By having several editors and categories we spread the word out and reduce the overall load for each volunteer.<br /> <br /> Each editor is in charge of:<br /> <br /> * looking through submitted articles<br /> * doing a brief review and perhaps fwd. them to another more experienced user/developer or other Reviewer<br /> * asking certain projects to submit articles (for volumes covering one subject)<br /> * check for layout errors, so that the final files can easily be merged with all other sections<br /> <br /> <br /> === Open Positions ===<br /> <br /> Name in brackets are proposals, please add somebody/you and/or remove your name. Positions can be flexible too and others are glad to help coach you in your duties, so don't be afraid! These positions can change from volume to volume, so if you want to just try it out for one volume, that is fine too.<br /> <br /> Note crossed-out positions may still be available, add your name if you are interested in helping in any area.<br /> <br /> * &lt;s&gt;'''Newsletter head''': announcing new vol./call for articles; announce release dates - '''Tyler'''&lt;/s&gt;<br /> * &lt;s&gt;''''Edt. in Chief''': merging all sections, check for final version, asking all Edt. so submit final version etc. - '''Tyler'''&lt;/s&gt;<br /> * '''News Editor''': to compile general new items from past 6 months for 1-2 pages in the newsletter.<br /> * '''Event Editor''': to compile information about OSGeo-related events and to find summary reports that could be included as part of the newsletter<br /> &lt;s&gt;* '''Project Spotlight editor(s)''': some contributors will have something already completely written. The editor would just help them get it into good form or would help ask more questions and gather more info - '''Martin''' &lt;/s&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;s&gt;* '''Editor for Case Studies''': &lt;/s&gt;<br /> <br /> * '''Editor for Programming/Code Studies''' : same as above<br /> &lt;s&gt;* '''Editor for Integration Studies''': same as above - '''Martin'''&lt;/s&gt;<br /> <br /> &lt;s&gt;* '''Layout Designer''' - familiar with graphic design and/or LaTeX (first layout can be taken from GRASS-News, only for forthcoming version/changes further skills are necessary). Help show your skills to develop a professional quality publication.&lt;/s&gt;<br /> * '''Spell-checker''': native-speaker to check all articles<br /> * '''Reviewers''': You have particular expertise and can review certain kinds of articles for content. Somewhat like a peer reviewer too, so logical questions can be turned back to authors if needed.<br /> * '''Formating/Conversion''' - moving non-LaTeX content into LaTeX forms (each author/section Edt.has to check for latex errors etc.)<br /> * '''Sponsor''' - interested in sponsoring the newsletter creation?<br /> <br /> === Assigned Positions ===<br /> <br /> * '''Newsletter head''': [[User:Tmitchell | Tyler Mitchell]] <br /> * '''Edt. in Chief''': [[User:Tmitchell | Tyler Mitchell]] <br /> <br /> * '''Project Spotlight editor(s)''': [[User:Wegmann | Martin Wegmann]]<br /> * '''Case Studies editor(s)''': [mailto:micha@arava.co.il Micha Silver]<br /> * '''Editor for Integration Studies''': [[User:Wegmann | Martin Wegmann]]<br /> <br /> * '''Layout/Design''': Kevin Yam<br /> * '''Programming Tutorial Editor''': Landon Blake<br /> <br /> == Reviewers ==<br /> <br /> Please list yourself below with name, e-mail and field of expertise to review certain articles - individual editors will contact you if necessary:<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> '''Reviewer Name''': Landon Blake<br /> <br /> '''Reviewer E-Mail''': sunburned.surveyor@gmail.com<br /> <br /> '''Reviewer Subjects''': Coordinate Geometry, Geodesy, Surveying, Applications of GIS to Public Works and Parcel/Cadastral Records Management<br /> <br /> <br /> '''Name''': Micha Silver, [mailto:micha@arava.co.il Micha]<br /> <br /> '''Expertise''': Using GIS and GPS in agricultural pest control projects; watershed analysis<br /> <br /> == Newsletter Software ==<br /> <br /> Based on GRASS-News (which was based on R News) Latex is recommended, but other publishing packages might be considered for forthcoming issues.
