I'm very excited to hear Markus and Lorenzo correct me and tell me
that GeoFOSS packaging is live and well.
And yes, we would be delighted to work with you, building upon your
work rather than starting again from scratch.
The success of a packaging project will come from a strong community.
We have been planning to create a simple live CD (based upon Debian or
Ubuntu) for the Java stack - something that we think we could achieve.
But if there are others working on this as well, together we could
make something more ambitious for foss4g2008.
Who is interested and what timezones are we in?
LISAsoft is in Sydney, Australia.
Markus and Lorenzo are in Europe?
How about we meet on IRC #osgeo on Friday: 5pm Sydney, 9am in Europe?

If this doesn't suit, suggest another time.

Adding to Mark's comments,
Our intent is to try and compliment and work with existing packaging
efforts
rather than compete with them. From our digging around, it seems
that prior
LiveCD efforts are not being maintained any more. (Please correct me
if I'm
wrong).
I take liberty to correct you:
http://grass.osgeo.org/download/cdrom.php
at least also
- slaxGIS
- ArcheOS
and the aforementioned Ominiverdi CDROM are up to date.
We are focusing initially on packaging the java stack as we felt
this could
benefit the most from a little attention,
While this is fine, the title of your LiveCD should reflect this to
minimize
confusion. "FOSS4G LiveCD" sounds like "all included incl C/C++
stack" to me.
Best
Markus
