Hi Dan,
Yes, it would be good to have an understanding of how OSGeoLive is being
used at FOSS4G, even if just to populate our history page:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_History
If there are any specific tweaks that make sense, we can consider that
for the generic distribution too.

I can answer the first question: I’ve been designated as the workshop
coordinator, and have been in contact with presenters to get their
requirements. Most of those using OSGeo Live will be fine with the vanilla
version, though a couple have special requirements, which at this point we’re
addressing using various workarounds. One group of presenters has already
supplied us with a VM based on Windows and their own software suite. I can
forward the responses I’ve gotten, and we can decide upon the best way to
communicate with all parties and take care of the special cases.
As for the remaining questions, we’ll be taking those up at the LOC meeting
tomorrow evening.

Hi foss4g 2014 team,
We are coming into our final sprint to have OSGeo-Live ready for FOSS4G-PDX,
and would like to start talking logistics.
At past FOSS4G international events, attendees have been given either an
OSGeo-Live DVD or USB as swag; OSGeo-Live has been installed as a virtual
machine for many of the workshops; and the OSGeo presentation has been
presented at the start of foss4g conferences, which gives attendees a high
level overview of the Open Source Geospatial ecosystem, and helps people select
which presentations they should attend.
So questions:
1. How can we help out with using OSGeo-Live as a virtual machine for
workshops? Who should we talk to about this?
2. Is there a speaking slot available for the OSGeo-Live presentation?
3. What are your thoughts on printing DVDs/USBs of OSGeo-Live?
