Hi Ravi,
Yes, you are so right, we do need to collect as much of the material
from the FOSS4G conference as we can.
One way we hope to facilitate this has been to give every attendee a
LiveDVD which can be populated with all the material from the
workshops. This means that if workshop presenters can get their data
onto the DVD, then they know all attendees will receive it.
So we have budget for the LiveDVD. We have an old version of the
LiveDVD (based on FOSS4G 2008). What we need to continue through to
completion is to have someone who will coordinate the compiling of
the DVD. This is primarily a project management role, keeping track
of what is on the DVD and what should be on it, contacting workshop
authors, and project leads and helping them get their projects onto
the DVD etc.
Sound like you? It would be an incredibly valuable contribution to
FOSS4G and the greater OSGeo community at large.

These are all kind thoughts. Would you consider volunteering to help
put together the conference live DVD? You can see an example from
FOSS4G2008 etc...

Hi All,
FOSS4G every year is a keenly followed event. Many await the
publication of material on the website eagerly such that they can
follow labs, workshops and presentations of choice.
So the present organisers may please request those especially
conducting labs/workshops to keep in mind the multitudes who
browse them through the internet can have equal benefit. This can
be achieved my keeping on the internet for download
1. All the binaries that are required for the exercise
2. All the data that are required for the exercise
3. All the printed material provided for the exercise
4. All the other material provided to the attendees, CD or DVD etc
I agree that most of it is done each time, except for a few
instances
Example:'Download data from the CD provided', is given in the lab
pdf.. but the data is not given for download...
Example:'Run the pg_setenv.bat file first,' (FOSS4G2007).. even on
date a nice archive is available from the FOSS4G2007 website,
data, text etc..
but, the pg_setenv.bat, not there.
This may be trivial for experts, but for those learning through
the internet and depending on 'Discuss Lists', it will be a
roadblock.
Cheers
Ravi Kumar
