Re: [Live-demo] OSGeo-Live 11.0 - which PHP version will we use?
On 2017-05-09 11:09, Astrid Emde (OSGeo) wrote: which PHP version will we use for OSGeo-Live 11.0? Ideally the latest 5.x. Mapbender3 can now handle PHP 7. So we would be fine with moving to PHP 7. PHP MapScript doesn't support PHP 7 yet, that will be included in the upcoming MapServer 7.2 release.

It isn't clear to me what to do about it but for the record OpenHub seems to be pretty confused about GeoMoose. It is missing our early history (2005-2009). It is confused about our recent history (probably because of our use of git submodules). And it is completely unaware of our 3.0 developments (which are happening in new repos, incidently because we want to move away from git submodules). As a project we would much rather be putting our time into maintaining 2.9.x and into the current effort to moderize our project for what will become our 3.0 release than worring about how to get a black box (OpenHub) to properly understand our project's history. Maybe when things quiet down OpenHub tinkering will make it to the top of the list, but I don't see that being the case anytime soon. OpenHub is just one metric. Just make sure the project information and the repositories it monitors are correct and complete.

Re: [Live-demo] Mass production of OSGeo Live USB - any SMEs providing this ?

For example, * Generating the Thumb Drives * These should be generated as needed, based on our usage locally for different events. When we don’t end up using some of them at a particular event, we end up re-writing them with the newer version of OSGeo-Live for the next event. Not really an economically sound model. * Setting up something like a Raspberry Pi with OSGeo-Live. Possibly for resale, certainly as a download for other to install. * Setting up a Cloud (OSGE Certified?!) version of OSGe-Live * As has been mentioned before, an application picker for installation of software would go a long ways. * There’s a bit of effort required for this one I’ll grant you, but it would certainly go along was toward promoting OSGeo. * Cloud service(s) version of OSGeo. * Setting up a Docker . . . Well you get the idea, if your going to pay for something, may as well go for broke. You end up with a one stop shop and possibly a container of sorts for other projects to add in their own dedicated versions of the same sort of devices/services. Are you volunteering to implement any of the above? These are good suggestions, but without people to do the work it will never materialize.

Is anyone aware of an important date/conference around February/March that we should target for? Note that the OSGeo-Live 10.5 cycle overlaps the key release dates for the next Debian stable release: [2016-Nov-05] Transition freeze [2016-Dec-05] Mandatory 10-day migrations [2017-Jan-05] Soft freeze (no new packages, no re-entry, 10-day migrations) [2017-Feb-05] Full freeze This may or may not be a good thing. From the Soft freeze date packages for Debian will likely be uploaded to experimental if they are not intended for inclusion in stretch.
