Victor,
Following up on this email thread.
We discussed Sextane in our weekly IRC meeting yesterday:
http://irclogs.geoapt.com/osgeolive/%23osgeolive.2013-06-13.log

Bottom line is that we would welcome a Sextane Project Overview, which references already existing Quickstarts from other applications. (Feel free to look at the other Quickstarts and see if you think they should be tweaked).

Victor,
Would you like to write a Sextane Project Overview?
The documentation writing process is described here:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc#Documentation

First thing you would need is to request OSGeo-Live subversion access, if you don't already have it, as per:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc#Subversion

I see that the Quickstart you reference is making use of
QGIS. I note that we already have a QGIS quickstart, which
mentions Sextante. I suggest that rather than create another
quickstart, we should make use of the existing QGIS quickstart,
which could be extended slightly to include one screen shot and
a few more steps. (Note that we still want to keep the
documentation concise, so that it is easy to maintain and
test in future).
Hi,

I'd advise about adding much more to the QGIS quickstart, it's
already quite long and there is quite a lot to talk about while
just talking about the core functionality. wrt the GRASS and
SEXTANTE sections in the QGIS quickstart, I think the important
thing is to let users know that the (huge) resource exists, and
show them how to open the door to that functionality. But moving
too far beyond that is getting a bit out of scope.

So I'd encourage other solutions which added new content in
less crowded corners, and a "for more on this see..." at the
appropriate place in the QGIS doc.


regards,
Hamish
