Dear members,
I would like to know if anybody take this topic in account for producing
the next release of OSGeoLive DVD 6.0. I think it makes lot of sens to
make sure that all projects included in next release fit the new OGC
requirements. The final update of the OGC schemas should happen on jully
27th so maybe we still get some time before considering this issue.
Hope to hear from you,
Best regards,

Hi Gerald and thanks for bringing this issue up,
This is definitely a very crucial matter for all OGC related software
on the disk.
The problem is that we do not build everything from source but rely on
many packages. So this kind of patching should be done upstream for
each project.
I realize that this is not the case right now. Actually I am not aware
of any project having fixed this issue till now (and having released a
stable version).
Another issue is that we might be against a double standard for a long
time, since this change will not happen overnight.
I recall some project discussions about being compatible with both
xlink versions to continue to support previous deployments.
I am afraid this will be an issue not just with OSGeoLive 6.0 but
perhaps the next version too...
Perhaps we should update the status spreadsheet to monitor projects
compatible with this new specification.
Best regards,
Angelos
My take is that a change in an OGC standard might trigger an update to
docs for a packaged application, but it is not the role of OSGeo-Live to
emphasise compliance of packaged applications on OSGeo-Live projects.
Ie, we might want to update our documentation about OGC standards, and
maybe also update Project Overview docs to note compliance/non
compliance of projects.
