Purtroppo la regola del GSoC è nota dal 2006, e i partecipanti di OSGeo
devono rispettarla. Si può pensare di organizzare un SoC parallelo
aperto a questi Paesi, se ci sono forze e fondi.

A settembre  scorso, avevo portato alla Board il problema di
accessibilità dei siti OSGeo da parte di Paesi sotto l'embargo degli
Stati Uniti. I membri della Board sono favorevoli a risolvere il
problema, e mi hanno rediretto al System Administration Committee.

Siccome non so come verificare l'accessibilità dei siti da parte dei
Paesi elencati, avevo iniziato a raccogliere un po' di documentazione,
e invitato gli interessati a partecipare.

Finora non ho visto contributi nel titanpad o via mail. Appena
arriveranno, apro un ticket al SysAdmin Committee di OSGeo per
risolvere la questione.

Grazie!
Anne
