Hallo list! I prepared some GIS-related packages for Fedora Core 2 and I would like to announce them within the next few days to the list. I read that I should introduce myself before I do so. Well, here I am: 1. Full legal name: Silke Reimer 2. Country, City: Germany, Osnabrück 3. Profession: Project management for (mainly GIS related) projects with Free Software 4. Company: Intevation GmbH, www.intevation.de 5. My goals in the Fedora Project: As I already wrote I am interested in GIS related projects and software. Our company has been asked by Michael Tiemann to produce some packages with GIS software and data for Fedora 2 and this is what I did in the last time. Now the packages should be included in the official release of Fedora 2. In detail I am talking about the following packages: - grass (version 5.7) - thuban (version 1.0 with some enhancements) - some GIS libraries: gdal, shapelib, proj - some Geodata based on vmap0 with examples and HowTos for there usage 6. Historical qualifications I got my first experiences in packaging software in 2000 when I became responsible for the FreeGIS CD. The FreeGIS CD is a collection of RPM-based packages with GIS software and data as well as some documentation about how to use these packages. Since debian lacks lot of important GIS related stuff I began to help with packaging some of them. By now I am the maintainer for thuban and gdal. In my professional work I am mainly engaged in building web based applications with spatial reference. This can be some rather simple webmapping applications or very complex WebGIS applications for the digitizing geodata or web based maps with connection to complex simulations systems. My main programming language is python but I also have to adapt or enhance free software programms which are written in other languages, mainly C and PHP. I hope this is sufficient to trust me :-) Otherwise please ask more about my skills, goals etc. 7.
