Update OSGeo-Live docs and installer
16 January 2012
Could all projects which are to be updated since last OSGeo-Live release, please update Project Overviews, Quickstarts and ensure the application installer loads the correct version of software.
Once finished, update our status sheet. [1]
We'd like docs updated in time for translators by Monday 30 January 2012, in two weeks.
Project Overviews [2]
- Ensure that the version is the same in the status sheet [1] and installed application
- If required, updated the feature list or text
- Once complete, update the status sheet [1] to "5.5draft"
- I'll review all Overviews set to "5.5draft"
Quickstarts [3]
- If required, update the Quickstart text, then set status in spreadsheet to "5.5draft"
- Test that the quickstart works in a recent OSGeo-Live release, and if the Quickstart works as expected, update the "Tested by" column in the status sheet [1] to "5.5<yourname>". Report any errors to the application's developer and/or developer community and/or osgeo-live email list.
- Have a independent person check the quickstart and add name to the "Tested by" column.
Installers [4]
- Application installers should be updated to install the stable release, as listed in our status sheet [1].
