Learn more about the PSC

The Project Steering Committee (PSC) plays a pivotal role in the governance and operational direction of GRASS GIS. Here's a brief overview of the key responsibilities and resources managed by the PSC:

Mailing List

Stay connected and informed with the PSC's activities through our Public Mailing List. It's the best way to keep up with the discussions, decisions, and directions taken by the committee.

Meeting Agenda

The PSC holds regular meetings and keeps meeting minutes that summarize discussed issues and decisions. This ensures transparency and structured decision-making within our project.

RFCs and Motions

Request For Comment (RFC) List

The GRASS team uses RFC documents as tools to collectively delineate different procedures and functions. The list of RFC documents that were adopted is accessible on GitHub, providing a platform for community feedback and collaboration.

PSC Motions

Review the formal decisions and motions passed by the PSC, reflecting our project's evolving needs and objectives.

Developer Contributions

A core function of the PSC is to grant GitHub write access to new core developers. This process ensures that contributors who have demonstrated commitment and quality in their work are able to more directly influence the project's development.

Join us in shaping the future of GRASS GIS. Whether you're looking to contribute, provide feedback on RFCs, or simply stay informed, the PSC welcomes your participation and support.
