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.

CentOS did not make the list of organizations for GSoC 2009. :(
Thank you to those interested in CentOS being part of GSoC 2009. We will submitting our application once again next year.

Bill, I can't find the non-accepted organization list GSoC. Is there any letter from Google? I'd like to know why we did not make to be prepared for the next round. :o) Thanks, David

I think David wanted to know why we (and numerous others) were not accepted, not a list of who was accepted.
AFAICT, Google simply swept that under the "we weren't able to accept every worthwhile project that applied". They also mention that they accepted fewer this year than last. Unless there was a more detailed email to the submitter, I think that's all you're going to get.

Yes, that sums it up. I received a "canned" reply to the effect of "Your org was not accepted. Please try again next year."
