Community

Community is Oskari’s core value. Oskari Community includes growing group of organizations, individuals and developers putting their interests together to improve and develop Oskari software. Members of the Oskari community share openly their skills and knowledge with each other and develop Oskari together. At the community, we are constantly developing new solutions and ways of working. Thanks to active development by the community, Oskari stays up to date. Everyone is welcome to participate in the development of Oskari. There are different ways people can join Oskari development community.

Project steering committee

Oskari Project Steering Committee (PSC) is responsible for updating Oskari Roadmap and discusses the technical issues around Oskari.org in order to ensure consistent maintenance of the software. When new proposals are added to the Roadmap, the PSC members are informed and discussion on the suggested features should be active. Committing the feature is approved by the Project Steering Committee. Trusted developers can also be granted commit rights to the repository.

Oskari PSC will be compiled from active contributors, Oskari Community Members and Project owners. Anybody interested in working in Oskari PSC can become a member (see Adding members).Oskari PSC is a steering group, a not a management group. This means that the PSC’s job is to describe and decide which new features are adopted to Oskari.org repository. The implementation of these features are done by Community members or Project owner organizations in their projects. Oskari PSC also advises in issues related to Oskari development. The rules for Oskari PSC are adopted from GeoServer, GeoNode & other OSGeo projects.
