Live GIS Disc Press Release 68

=OSGeo-Live 10.0 alpha ready to test=

6 June 2016

After much hard work from the OSGeo-Live build team, we have an alpha version of OSGeo-Live 10.0, which has been moved to the new Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Long Term Support (LTS) release. We encourage all OSGeo-Live projects to please download [1] and test your project with this new alpha release and make sure it works as expected. Please report back to live-demo@lists.osgeo.org telling us which application and which OSGeo-Live version you have tested. We track this in our status spreadsheet [2]). We love pro-active projects we don't have to chase. If there are any issues, please report them in our issues spreadsheet [3].
