[http://live.osgeo.org OSGeo Live] provides bootable ISO-Images and [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine Virtual Machines] which allow users to try out fully-operational versions of popular Free Geospatial Software without the need to install a thing.
 
−
 
 
−
We do this in large part by maintaining automated build scripts which collect many [[OSGeo]] programs and sample data-sets together, and then combine them to form the Live disc or VM itself. By tweaking these scripts, users are free to make their own custom distributions, for example localized in their own language and with local map data.

== Including OSGeo-Live at your event ==
 
−
[http://live.osgeo.org OSGeo Live] provides a DVD, USB and a Virtual Machine which allow users to try out fully-operational versions of popular Free Geospatial Software without the need to install a thing. It also includes documentation and a comprehensive presentation.
 
−
 
 
−
This is the process to follow if you wish to make use of OSGeo-Live at your conference, workshop or similar event.
 
−
 
 
−
; Tell Us
 
−
: Add your event to our [[Live GIS History]] page and tell us how you would like to use OSGeo-Live on our [http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo email list] (or email [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/OSGeo_Advocate#Cameron_Shorter Cameron Shorter] directly). Hearing how OSGeo-Live is used motivates us to keep going, and we plan releases around upcoming events.
 
−
; Presentation
 
−
: Conference attendees appreciate the [http://live.osgeo.org/en/presentation/index.html OSGeo-Live Lightning Overview], which explains the breadth of OSGeo software, abstract [http://live.osgeo.org/en/presentation/abstract.txt here]. It is often presented by one of the conference organisors, or keynote speakers. You may wish to find a suitable speaker from the [[OSGeo Advocate]] list. The presentation may be given as is, or modified to align with time constraints, presenter's interest, or conference focus. (For prior variants, see [[Live GIS Presentation]].)
 
−
; Handing out DVDs or USBs
 
−
: OSGeo-Live DVDs and/or USBs are often handed out to all conference delegates, or a smaller number handed out from an OSGeo booth. DVDs are cheaper (around $2 per copy), but USBs provide a better experience as they are faster to boot up and run. You will need to:
 
−
:# Work out how to pay for the USBs/DVDs. Usually the price is factored into event budgets. This means you will require commitment from the event Organisors. However you may find an external sponsor, or for smaller print runs, you might find volunteers to print from their computers.
 
−
:# Source a local printer, preferably local. Printers typically require 2 weeks to do the print run, although they often will turn around faster if you pay more money.
 
−
:# Printing DVDs: The printer will require an [http://live.osgeo.org/en/download.html ISO image], and artwork for the DVD face and DVD sleeve. You may make use of existing [https://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd/artwork/sleeve/ artwork] or create your own.
 
−
:# Printing USBs: A 4 Gig USB is required for [http://live.osgeo.org/en/download.html osgeo-live-mini] (8 Gig if you wish the full image with windows and mac installers). The process for installing USBs is described [http://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/usb_quickstart.html here]. Note that it is important to ask the printer if they can create '''bootable''' USBs. (We have found that many printers are not familiar with the process). It is prudent to [http://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/osgeolive_quickstart.html check] the first USB that is printed before printing the rest. You can also print a logo on the USB.
 
−
; Workshops
 
−
: For workshops, we recommend using OSGeo-Live from a [http://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/virtualization_quickstart.html Virtual Machine] or from a USB. Note that some computers can't boot from a USB. OSGeo-Live on a DVD is slow and as such is not recommended for workshops. However it is wise to have a few spare DVDs in case one of your computers can't boot from the USB. Note that OSGeo-Live we have heard some issues when running on Apple Macs, so if using Macs, please test first.

; Poster
 
−
: We have a [http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc#Poster Poster] which is useful for hanging on a wall of a conference booth.

== Issue Tracker==
 
−
Our issue tracker is [http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/query?group=status&component=LiveDVD&order=priority hosted at OSGeo's Trac system], and you will need to create an [http://www.osgeo.org/osgeo_userid OSGeo UserId] before you can login and edit issues. To distinguish the LiveDVD project from other OSGeo projects, use the following conventions:
 
−
; Component field
 
−
: Set to `<tt>LiveDVD</tt>`
 
−
; Keywords:
 
−
: Version: Set to base release version: eg: 5.0, 5.5 (not 5.5rc1)
 
−
: Application: Set to application with issue (use lower case): eg: "geoserver"
 
−
 
 
−

−
 
 
−
== OSGeo User Id ==
 
−
* Create an OSGeo id: http://www.osgeo.org/osgeo_userid , which is required to edit the wiki, commit to svn and create an issue in the issue tracker.
 
−
 
 
−
== Git migration ==
 
−
 
 
−
; Repositories (to be moved to OSGeo infrastructure soon): https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive and https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc
 
−
* Since Git is a distributed versioning system, it is very convenient for each developer/contributor to have a personal public copy of the "official" repository (also known as fork).
 
−
 
 
−
* Web hosting services like GitLab or GitHub provide this option if you visit the main code repository and press the button "Fork". This way the developer can make changes to a personal isolated repository. Then one can ask the rest of the developers to review the code and merge accordingly through a "pull request".
 
−
 
 
−
* After forking the official repositories, your working repositories are: https://github.com/your_id/OSGeoLive and https://github.com/your_id/OSGeoLive-doc
 
−
 
 
−
* On Linux systems get the source code locally using:
 
−
git clone https://github.com/your_id/OSGeoLive
 
−
 
 
−
* In order to be able to get and send changes to your public repository, you need to link your local copy to your public copy. This is done automatically for you when you "git clone". The repository that you cloned from has the alias "origin".
 
−
 
 
−
* In order to be able to get changes that others do to the main repository, you need to manually link to that using:
 
−
git remote add upstream https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive
 
−
 
 
−
* On MS Windows systems, install [https://code.google.com/p/tortoisegit/ TortoiseGit], which extends Windows Explorer to include git commands.
 
−
 
 
−
* The first thing you should do when you install Git is to set your user name and e-mail address.
 
−
git config --global user.name "John Doe"
 
−
git config --global user.email johndoe@example.com
 
−
 
 
−
; Commit access
 
−
:On the git world, you don't need commit access to the main repository in order to contribute. You just work on your own fork and ask maintainers to merge your code through "pull requests". Before you contribute to the project for the first time, you will need to confirm that you will comply with our license guidelines. Write something like:
 
−
 
 
−
:''"Hi all, I'd like to contribute XXX to OSGeo-Live. I confirm that my contributions to OSGeo-Live will be compatible with the OSGeo-Live license guidelines at the time of contribution."''

;Add your name to contributors list
 
−
:The first thing you should do to test your git setup is to add your name to the [https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/blob/master/contributors.csv code contributors] or [https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/blob/master/translators.csv translators] list(s):
 
−
 
 
−
cd OSGeoLive-doc
 
−
 
 
−
# Pull any updates from upstream project (master is the equivalent of subversion trunk)
 
−
git pull upstream master
 
−
 
 
−
# Coders and creators of new content: edit contributors.csv
 
−
# please add your Name, Email, Country and Osgeo_id to the list, separated by comma
 
−
#  - Order alphabetical by first name,
 
−
#  - remove punctuation from email addresses to stop harvesting for junk mail
 
−
 
−
# optionally check to see what has changed.
 
−
git diff contributors.csv
 
−
 
−
# add the changes into stage area
 
−
git add contributors.csv
 
−
 
 
−
# commit changes locally
 
−
git commit -m "Added [my name] to contributors"
 
−
 
 
−
# send the changes to your public repository
 
−
git push origin master
 
−
 
 
−
At this point you can let others know that you have some changes that you want to merge, so you can use the button "Pull Request" on GitLab or GitHub. Or you can continue until you feel ready to share your code :)

−
# Translators: edit translators.csv

= Use Cases =
 
−
 
 
−
There are multiple use cases for this product:
 
−
 
 
−
* '''Demo DVD''' that can be handed out at conferences.<br />This will contain a wide variety of applications, preconfigured with some sample data and containing introductory tutorials.  It should be able to function completely offline, at least within the scope of the tutorials, and should provide an introduction to many products.  This is very much a Live DVD, and as such should be conservative with regards to size (it will be run from RAM).
 
−
* '''Education DVD'''<br />This seems to be a more involved version than the Demo DVD, including more involved material, including train-the-trainer style material.  This is targeted at those who will be teaching others, be it in workshops or university classes/labs.  My expectation (mleslie: feel free to correct me) is that this is more likely to be installed on machines and used as a teaching resource, as opposed to a toy to play with, as with the Demo DVD.  This will require material developed through the [[Category:Education|Education initiative]].
 
−
* '''Workstation Install DVD'''<br />  This need was seen in Cape Town, where the bandwidth seems to be a very limiting factor.  Using the DVD to install either a complete OS, a set of packages to an existing Linux, or Windows installers completely offline is of great value in the developing world.  Would it be of greater value to lose the Edu or demo material and put in complete application documentation?
