Please email answers to these questions if you wish to propose including a new application on the OSGeo-Live distribution. The email should be sent to the OSGeo-Live list: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo

  • Please describe your application. What is its name, what is the URL to its home page, what does it do?
  • OSGeo-Live is targeted at applications that people can use rather than libraries that are included into other applications. Does the application have a user interface (possibly command line interface) that a user can interact with?
  • OSGeo-Live is memory and disk constrained. Can the application run in 512 Meg of RAM?
  • How much disk space will be required to install the application and a suitable example application?
  • We aim to reduce disk space by having all applications make use of a common dataset. We encourage applications to make use of the naturalearth dataset already installed:

http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Add_Project#Example_Datasets If another dataset would be more appropriate, please discuss here.

  • Have you started incubation, or are you on the waiting list to start incubation?

4. Stability is very important to us on OSGeo-Live. Do you have a bug free, stable release, which has been rolled out to production in a number of locations?

5. I notice the CeCILL licence you use is not listed on OSI list of licences. Has license been discussed and resolved on the OSGeo-Incubation list?

6. Do you have a person (maybe yourself?) prepared to volunteer to be the OSGeo-Live representative, who will take responsibility for liaising between the project and OSGeo-Live and make sure that scripts and documentation are updated for each release.
