The Eclipse Foundation is in the process of setting up the LocationTech industry working group.
The uDig project has (in a small way) taken part in the initial organisation of LocationTech, and has gone so far as to change license and submit an application to join!
The industry working group is expected to officially launch "real soon now," and is already hosting a series of talks and demos from a range interesting projects:
- Open Layers 3 - Nov 7th
- Cesium tech talk - Nov 24th (talk is complete but video is up on YouTube)
And coming up:
- uDig GIS tech talk Nov 27th - 5pm EST (click for time in your area)
- Leaflet tech talk - Dec 4th: 11am EST (click for time in your area)
Join the uDig Tech Talk Nov 27th
That's right - uDig google hangout is this week. Follow LocationTech on Twitter for the google hangout URL. We look forward to seeing you!
LocationTech Proposal
If you are interested in tracking the uDig Project's progress towards joining LocationTech here is our community request for change page that shows what is involved, and what tasks we have remaining.
The official proposal is on the LocationTech website. (We are pleased to be the first project listed!)
We would also like to thank our mentor Benjamin Cabé who is introducing us to the eclipse process.
