For me the major value in OSGeoLive are the project overviews and quickstarts. I''ve pointed them out to many windows users interested in open source GIS to get an overview of what is possible with open source gis,and I'm actually basing a training on them as well. My own impression is that if we want to reach out to non-geek GIS users the ideal way would be a system like portable GIS with the great documentation of the live dvd, ie run and test the programs without needing to be admin or having to install different programs. My experience of building packages on windows is scanty, but if more people support this idea I'm definitely willing to stand up and do part of the work, if only because I'll need training material for windows. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
