Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for your blog post. It is nice to see OSGeoLive being used for class teaching. I do this myself too :)

Also thank you for the feedback. About the slower booting of version 6.0, I guess it has to do with some startup scripts we added to bypass an annoying mysql bug we had. We are planning to fix this in 7.0 as well as disabling the default tomcat from starting up during boot, which also takes time and memory.

Right now we are close to 6.5 release.

Regards,
Angelos

Dear all,

Sorry to appear from nowhere in this list. Jeff suggested that you might be
interested in some reflections on using OSGeo Live 6.0 in a class setting
(and before it, 5.0) that I've written up in a blog post:
http://wp.me/pDme1-1F (this is a Wordpress short URL to the post).

I've not gone into details on the post, and possibly its contents are
outside your interest, but I hope it might be helpful.

And thank you for this system - I use OSGeo Live all the time for the GIS,
as a VM in research, in teaching, and often simply as a convenient Linux
system!

Any questions, suggestions, etc, please contact me.

Regards,
Jeremy
