Each room will have a "local admin" to help workshop givers to prepare.
FOSS4G2006 LiveCD.
Local committee is motivated to build our own FOSS4G2006 LiveCD (based on Knoppix). It could be used during workshops if needed. Probably can we merge our effort with workshop givers who planned the use of a LiveCD ?
Some links.
- LiveCD GIS oriented : List
- List of GIS LiveCDs
- Mandriva based : FOSS4G Toolkit CD --> Hum, it's not a LiveCD !!
- Knoppix based : GIS Knoppix
- LiveCD for GRASS Workshops
