Victor, it's clear that we do not see eye to eye on this topic, and I don't think that is going to change with further discussion.
Let's see what Gitlab says.

No worries, what about the main point of my 1st message? That we don't fit at all with their terms when looking at our roles list no matter how we define maintainers.

Sorry that I have made many people uncomfortable.
When I said «In practice we would be trying to scam GitLab.com» it was in «You don't realize it but it's misleading». Not «You are consciously and malevolently thinking to mislead them»

Ultimately, we can speculate one way or another all we want, but it's up to Gitlab to say whether or not we fit, and I think that you can rest assured that we'll be open and honest with whatever information that they want to support their decision-making.
Bringing up HLT or Koha Community as non profit organization to be able to tick the box «project maintainers are not seeking to make profit from this project by for example, selling services [...]» didn't look like «you can rest assured that we'll be open and honest with whatever information that they want to support their decision-making»
Instead I though we gotta be upfront with ourselves if we were going that way which seemed misleading to me. (to bend so much things so they
fit) And that we needed to find reasons to be morally ok with that.
Cheers,

Hi all, I have submitted the form, and also contacted the sales department so we can explain how the project management works and to clarify any doubts. I will add others to the conversation once I get the call with the sales people.
Thanks everyone.

No worries, I think no one in the discussion was to be assumed to agree
with the idea that it would be a scam attempt to apply as is for the
non-profit program. Because for that someone must agree that we do not
fit at all with the non profit criteria for maintainers. That's the main
point of the message and necessary condition before starting to talk
about the scam thing.
And it seems everyone leans towards that we fit. So if anything to
assume, is that everyone was leaning towards agreeing to apply in good
faith without being a attempt to trick GitLab, thinking that we fit
enough in the criteria.
> However I do not agree at all.
> I do not recognize myself in your words
That's fine, it's my own view that we don't fit and the arguments to
apply anyway with less moral remorse are only mine.

Alright, looks good that way, I had to think hard to find moral
justifications to apply as is without complying to their terms.
(Assuming we would lean toward that we don't fit at all with their terms.)
My feelings when reading the discussion were that bringing up Koha
Community as an organization or Horowhenua Library Trust was very
dubious and that we should be upfront that it would be a dubious
application to their program. Thus the scam thing.

What about the main point of the message? My most important words are
that we don't fit at all with their terms. (details in previous message)
Sorry that I went too far developing the scam thing that it took all the
attention.

I don't think the link is working for me, but it's an interesting idea.
Where in the bib record are you storing the coordinate data? Have you looked at https://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic/bd034.html? It looks like that field was redescribed in 2021 to perfectly suit your use case.
In terms of feasibility, I think the main change would be to add suitable indexes for 034 MARC21 data. Beyond that, I think a plugin would make the most sense for a frontend, as the geosearch would probably be fairly specific to your library's needs. But if you could think of a geosearch that is useful for other libraries as well, then I imagine it could make it into Koha.
I don't know if any of my libraries would use it, but it's interesting. It might be one of those things that people don't know that they want until after they see it in action?
Anyway, sounds cool!

Betreff: [Koha-devel] ElasticSearch Geoserch
Hi!
We are currently discussing a project where a customer wants to add a geosearch to Koha (store lat/lng in biblio, use Elastic geo queries [0] together with a leaflet.js map to find biblios in a certain area).
I assume that might be of interest to Koha in general?
I also assume that this will only be possible via some changes to Koha core code (i.e. adding a new search field to ES and Koha, define mappings), while some things might be doable as a plugin (the "frontend"
map etc).
Before we start hacking I'd like to get some feedback from you:
* Would something like this be considered to be added to future Koha
versions?
* Do you think it's feasable / possible to add to Koha?
* Has anybody maybe done a geosearch before? (I couldn't find
anything..)
Greetings,
domm

Yes, explaining the project and letting them decide is the best. Thanks

Hi all,
Has anyone done a Koha plugin for a LibApps search source? That is, adding
Koha as a custom search source for LibGuides?
