What should be included in the next GIS Live DVD?
15 December 2009
We are planning two Arramagong GIS Live DVD releases during 2010 and are would like to know what applications and functionality people would like to contribute.
The Arramagong/GISVM GeoSpatial Live DVD and Virtual Machine, which includes a stack of popular GeoSpatial Open Source Applications and is being handed out to delegates at the FOSS4G conference, can now be viewed from http://click2try.com from within your web browser!
Arramagong includes a stack of popular GeoSpatial Open Source Applications. It is based on XUbuntu and GISVM, and allows you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial software without installing anything. It is currently available as:
- A Live DVD, which is regularly handed out at conferences, including being given to all delegates at the 2009 FOSS4G conference.
- A Virtual Machine
- Within a web browser from Click2Try: http://www.click2try.com/catalog/Web-Development/Geospatial/Arramagong-GISVM/details
Milestones
- 24 Jan 2010: Version 3.0 Feature Freeze
- 07 Mar 2010: Version 3.0 Final Release
- 05 Jul 2010: Version 4.0 Feature Freeze
- 16 Aug 2010: Version 4.0 Final Release (ready for FOSS4G 2010)
Ideas for future releases
Should we find sufficient volunteers, we would like to address the following:
- Upgrade to Xubuntu 9.10
- Upgrade packages to latest versions
- Incorporate new Geospatial packages
- General cleanup of existing image
- Incorporate help, tutorials, and training material
- Apply internationalisation
