Hello all, During my work on the Quickstarts, a few things came up that I need to raise more broadly. The OSM Quickstart is not really a quickstart in the true sense. I notice that OSM is listed twice on the OSGeoLive Contents page [1]. It's listed under the "Navigation and Maps" heading and the

Hi, Yesterday I closed my gitea PR, so I think the motion is no longer needed. We did create a QuickStart template and it was merged in a PR on github (not gitea) because that triggers a build and we could check if it broke anything (which it didn’t). I hope that makes sense. Thanks Felicity
