[Savannah-hackers-public] Task #14028: Farming Applications

[Hugh Mayfield]

This application relates to a proposal to create free software for 
agriculture, rather than any specific program per se.  I don't know if 
there is a Savannah policy on that.  I could not find any problems with 
hosting policy.

I think this is an excellent idea which could do a lot of good.  The 
applicant says that he is an experienced programmer and agricultural 
engineer.  So my recommendation is that, even if hosting at this stage is 
not appropriate because of the lack of a concrete program or package, 
someone reach out to the applicant with support and encouragement.  I 
would be happy to do that; I have actually been thinking about trying to 
develop software for agriculture myself.

I hope the above is somewhat useful.

Best wishes

Hugh
