| 11 | * Contribute to the specifications in order to agree and to keep track of what's done. Specifications of the intented development should be described in the Specifications page and submited to the postgis-devel mailing list for comments before starting development. Ask Pierre Racine to get write access to the specification page. |
| 12 | * Contribute to the Documentation as much as they can to make sure we produce a coherent and a professional open source product. |
