We have started building this year's OSGeo-Live DVD
<http://live.osgeo.org> which will be handed out to every delegate at
FOSS4G 2010, as well as many other Geospatial events.
This year, OSGeo-Live will be even sexier, more useful and professional
by including:
* consistent Application Overviews
<http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Artefacts#Application_Overview>
* Application Quick Starts
<http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Marketing_Artefacts#Application_Quick_Start>
* A common world dataset <http://www.naturalearthdata.com/>
* An overview of all applications on the LiveDVD in a presentation
at FOSS4G 2010
We want to hear from:
* Established GeoSpatial projects who wish to include their project
in OSGeo-Live
* Workshop leaders or trainers who wish to use OSGeo-Live. We'd like
to know how we can help you.
* Project representatives please:
o Update application version in application spreadsheet
<http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Al9zh8DjmU_RdGIzd0VLLTBpQVJuNVlHMlBWSDhKLXc&hl=en_GB>
then update your test script to ensure it installs in
Xubuntu 10.04.
o Comment on whether our draft templates for Project Overview
<https://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/doc/descriptions/postgis_overview.odt>
and Quick Start
<https://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/doc/descriptions/gvsig_quick_start.odt>
fit your projects.
