Building OSGeo Live DVD for FOSS4G 2010
25 November 2010
We are starting the build process for the OSGeo-Live DVD and want to hear from all included projects, translators, packagers, users, testers or others who wish to help improve OSGeo-Live. OSGeo-Live 4.5 will be released mid March 2011, ready for a number of big GeoSpatial conferences soon after.
Focus on this next release will be on improved Quality and Translating documentation.
Which Package Version
Could each project please tell us which version of your package you intend to include here. Understanding what will, or will not change versions helps us coordinate reviewers. We will be building from the Xubuntu 10.04 base, which is the same as last release.
If you have a established, stable project which you would like included on OSGeo-Live, then please talk to us about it.
