Repository of Open Source GIS software for CentOS
Open Source GIS software is going very strong, e.g. software under the
umbrella of http://www.osgeo.org. Unfortunately, the packaging situation
for CentOS is not that good.
Could the idea of creating a repository of packages, like the one for
Windows (http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo4w/wiki/PackageListing) be an
acceptable proposal for GSOC? I am working on a daily basis with a good
part of these packages and do have some SPEC files to share.

hi guys,
Thanks for joining in - Just a short update to say that Bill did
complete the form's etc on time. Were now just waiting on Google to
decide who they pick for the gsoc projects.
Bill can probably drop in more info here. Along with wiki url's etc. I
guess all potential mentors should get their names on there, and if they
have any other project ideas drop those on as well.

Hmm, hope we get this...
I've been using Unix since around 1985 (SunOS) with a 10 year diversion
into HPUX (9,10,11) before finding Linux around 1995. I started with
RHL 4.2 and have been using it continuously since. I met Russ through
our local LUG where I've presented on numerous topics. I've done IT in
electronics manufacturing, healthcare, financials and general
consulting. Since 2002 I've been employed by a large financial company as a
senior engineer specializing in Linux. I'm currently the technical lead
for the global Linux Engineering team.
I've used CentOS since the first spin came out. I lurk/post in the IRC
channels as wildross

Hi everyone,
I am satish from India, I am a 3 year undergrad student pursuing my
graduation in Computer Science and Engineering at a college in India.
I use Centos ( along with Fedora) as my primary OS, and I keep using
it for various tasks such as working on Drupal code ( on a local web
server), programming some applications and all kind of stuff.
Well I guess my skills are not enough to do some really front-end work
with the Gsoc projects, but I really like the work the Centos team
does, and would like to provide as much help as possible from my side.
Just let me know if there is something I can help out with.
PS : Just saw Karan's tweets and landed on the list. :)
Cheers
Satish
