[IGSMAIL-8616] Open Source Release of the IGS' Site Log Manager

[IGS Central Bureau]

 Dear Colleagues,


The International GNSS Service Central Bureau (IGS CB) is happy to announce
the open-source release of the *IGS Site Log Manager* ! The source code is
available at https://github.com/International-GNSS-Service/SLM, and its
full documentation and installation guide are available at
https://igs-slm.readthedocs.io.

The IGS Site Log Manager (SLM) is a web-based framework for managing GNSS
ground station metadata, maintained by the IGS, and freely licensed for
general use under the MIT License. The IGS CB has been using the SLM for
the successful operation of the IGS Network for several years now (see,
*e.g.*, https://network.igs.org and https://slm.igs.org).

With this open-source release, we encourage you all to utilise the IGS SLM
for managing your own GNSS networks ! Please feel free to explore the
software, provide your feedback, and contribute your developments directly
via the GitHub repository (https://github.com/International-GNSS-Service/SLM).
As the IGS SLM is intended to be for and by the community, the IGS CB is
actively monitoring the repository for activity and will consider all
developments for potential inclusion in the main software.

The IGS CB extends its heartfelt thanks to the entire development and
testing team for their tremendous effort in making the IGS SLM an
operational reality : the IGS CB Information Systems team for the
development efforts (Brian Kohan, Robert Khachikyan, Razmik Khachikyan),
the IGS Network Coordinator for operational use and testing (David
Maggert), and the IGS CB and colleagues for critical feedback cycles (*e.g.*,
Dave Stowers). We would also like to thank our institutional early adopters
for their trust and suggestions.


Looking forward to serving our community ever better,
Kindest regards,

Camille Martire, on behalf of the International GNSS Service Central Bureau.
