Hi Sergio,
Further to Angelos' email.
As I understand it, Kosmo is one of a number of forks of the Jump
codebase? Are there opportunities to combine the projects back together
again, and then benefit from combined communities and combine marketing?
Maybe handle differences by using a plugin concept (which is the
approach used by QGIS)?
Warm regards, Cameron

Hi Sergio,
Thank you for updating the metrics page and for your contribution of
Kosmo to the OSGeo-Live.
I went through the links provided in the metrics page and I landed in
Kosmo's home page.
I realized that we have been promoting Kosmo v3.1 through OSGeo-Live
for some releases now, but actually this version was never released on
your page. This is not a good open source practice, and reflects bad
to both projects.
You mentioned a 3.2 release coming soon, I hope to see that version
officially released so we can consider adding Kosmo back to OSGeo-Live.
Regards,
Angelos

Hi Cameron.
Here it's the OpenHub metrics for Kosmo Desktop (sorry for the
delay, i had some problems to get them up to date):

Feel free to check and let me know if it's worth to let Kosmo
Desktop form part of the OSGeo-LiveDVD.

Thanks Sergio for looking into this.
We are open to being convinced that kosmo is still a project that
should be on OSGeo-Live.
Warm regards, Cameron

Good morning Cameron.
Those are bad news :(...
* There is no version change of Kosmo for a number of releases.
We haven't increased the Kosmo Desktop number version due to
internal reasons. The next OsGeo-LiveDVD would include the new 3.2
version.
* We don't have any OpenHub metrics for Kosmo to check community
activity
I'm taking care of this, I'll warn you as soon as the openhub
metrics are all completed so you can check the activity and could
change the opinion about the project.

Hi Sergio,
We have identified Kosmo as a candidate for retiring from
OSGeo-Live. The reasons for considering this are:
* There is no version change of Kosmo for a number of releases.
* We don't have any OpenHub metrics for Kosmo to check community
activity
So the question we ask is "Should we recommend new users adopt
Kosmo over equivalent Open Source GIS alternatives?"
A good way to demonstrate that is by demonstrating an active
community.
I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on this?
Feel free to CC the OSGeo-Live list with your response if you like.
Warm regards, Cameron

Hi Astrid,
I'll check and prepare the latest one to be added to the new
version of OSGeo-Live.
The Project Overview and Quickstart will be valid for the new
one, but I'll check and add the newest functionalities (and some
use cases) to both of them.

Hi Sergio,
we have started our build cycle for OSGeo-Live 11.0, due to be
released at the end of July 2017, in time for FOSS4G 2017 in
August.
We are interested to know which version of kosmo should be
installed on OSGeo-Live 11.0?
Version 3.1 was installed on OSGeo-Live 10.5.
Note that our installer feature freeze is 5. June 2017!
Please give us feedback and get involved or provide a different
person as contact person, which will update your project.
We are asking all OSGeo-Live projects to let us know:
1. What versions of projects should be on OSGeo-Live?
2. Are there any new projects which should be on OSGeo-Live?
3. Are there any projects which should be dropped from OSGeo-Live?
Do you think we should drop kosmo from OSGeo-Live?
As per last announcement [1], with our next OSGeo-Live release
we intend to focus on quality, and as such will be asking each
project:
1. To help install the latest stable version of the software.
2. To verify Project Overview and Quickstarts are both up to
date and in line with our documentation standards.
You can see results of our first pass review in our status
spreadsheet [2], column T "11.0 comment", and column U "10.0
Doc Review".
