The DotSpatial Project Steering Committee consists of project leaders from several key .NET open source GIS projects as well as active users of .NET GIS libraries. The purpose of the steering committee is to help guide the development of the DotSpatial libraries, to make decisions on key project milestones and goals, and to help promote the libraries amongst the OSGeo and .NET open source communities.

The size of this committee is flexible though we are presently shooting for a committee of 12 or so. The Steering Committee discussion list is here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/dotspatial-sc
