Hi Ben -
I was reviewing some old emails regarding Unidata THREDDs server and
OSGeo-Live for netCDF and others, and I noticed that in a reply, you
say :
(as I know GeoServer much better than THREDDS)
This is great to read today.. perhaps I can let go of the idea
that Unidata THREDDs is important for the OSGeo-Live project. We never
got real attention, although there was some interest from Unidata
people..
best regards from Berkeley, California

Brian,
what is the process for building the full OSGeo Live image itself? The
top-level README refers to bin/main.sh which does not exist.
I got pretty far even on a LUbuntu Live VM, with git manually installed,
as an experiment. I will make a proper VM. I stuck with 16.04 as you
advised, not 16.04.1. I was able to use the script to install GeoServer
2.8.3 and the INSPIRE and CSS extensions. I think an upgrade to 2.10.x
is in order. I will need to check that we can use OpenJDK 8.
I plan to join next week's IRC meeting. I have been following the
mailing list but not yet made myself known. I know Cameron from when I
worked in Australia, and I am probably closer to him in distance and
time zones in New Zealand than when I worked in Perth!
Kind regards,
Ben.

Hi Ben -
thanks for the reply, great to hear you are interested in GEOSERVER
Source code for the Live build system is dual-hosted on Github.com
and git.osgeo.org/gogs
https://git.osgeo.org/gogs/osgeo/OSGeoLive
The approach I use is :
clone the git repo
make a VM with -unpatched- LUbuntu 1604
clone -your- git repo of the live, make a working branch, in the VM
once it is booted
run a few of the startup scripts (save time, ask a lot of questions here !)
In particular, I focus on python and netCDF, PostGIS / Postges, and
some others. So I just run the install scripts that are needed for
that.. a few blemishes are left because the SETDOWN finish does some
housekeepping, but basically that is good and works.. they are
well-behaved installers...
There are a few conventions about setting up the USER assets, just
data in a certain directory .. its not at all obscure. Again, please
save time ans ask lots of questions
We can set up a modern GEOSERVER and get to adding some stores and
layers and styles. I personally have done a few CSS styles, but fall
back to SLD when in a hurry. My current GEOSERVER is 2.7x, so there
are certainly things I dont know
We are focused on "Reference install; carefully chosen examples;
Showcase apps"
Definitely speak up on the list .. and also I can help you get
started at your convenience..
best regards from Berkeley, California

Brian,
I am happy to put my hand up for getting GeoServer into the next OSGeo
Live (as I know GeoServer much better than THREDDS). How is OSGeo Live
organised (mailing lists and resources)? What would you like from me?
I am also in touch with Ian Turton whom I think gave Cameron Shorter
some advice for a previous version of GeoServer in OSGeo Live. I have
let the GeoServer committee know about this activity.
Kind regards,
Ben.
