Hi All -

in the final hours of testing the Live 7.0 RC2, it was discovered that there is a weakness in the libspatialite setup.. the most visible aspect of this is that QGis 1.8 and the spatialite apps are not fully consistent working with new spatialite stores... (see ticket #1224)

It is possible that users may notice this important functionality, however in my opinion this is not of sufficient significance to alter the printing schedule of this DVD.

I believe that the facts should be recorded in Live 7.0 errata somewhere, but not in a prominent way. Since this functionality *is* important to some users, I believe it is up to the *spatialite* community and to some extent the QGis community to make this news available widely. I do not believe it is in their best interest to just ignore it entirely, since this disk will be widely distributed at FOSS4G 2013.

Of course, a Live 7.0x will be available at some later date.. but this 7.0 disk will go out..

  best regards from Berkeley, California
