Hi all! LISAsoft just released a new beta-version of the Arramagong Live DVD. This disk provides the opportunity to try a variety of open source geospatial applications without the need to install anything new on your system. It contains for example GeoServer, Mapserver, GRASS, uDig and many more.
This Live DVD is based on the Ominiverdi LiveDVD/XUbuntu and includes such supporting applications as Apache Web Server, Apache Tomcat Application Server, Sun Java, PostgreSQL and PGAdmin. Besides the applications the Live DVD provides sample data and sample configurations and projects for most of the installed applications. A list of the DVD content can be found here: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Arramagong_LiveDVD The current release is only a beta-version and needs to be tested. Therefore, it would be great if some of you could play a bit with the DVD. If you discover any problems, please report them here (We don't have an issue tracker yet): http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Arramagong_LiveDVD_issues The iso-image can be downloaded here: http://download.osgeo.org/livedvd/Arramagong_v1.0Beta1.iso We are trying to provide for each geospatial application examples, so the user can play with immediately. Of course, Geoserver comes with its own examples and we also set up some FeatureTypes for the other sample data on the DVD. However, if you have any ideas how to improve the configuration, let me know! One of our goals for the future, is to have all applications, configuration and examples as debian packages. This would make creating the Live DVD much more easier. Maybe someone already has made a Geoserver-deb-package or wants to help us creating one? Anyway, we have set up a mailing list for the Live DVD: http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo So if you are interested, just join it! :-) regards, stefan -- Stefan Hansen Software Engineer LISAsoft --------------------------------------------------- Ph: +61 3 8680 3200 Fax: +61 3 8680 3299 Mob: +61 Level 9, 601 Bourke St, Melbourne Vic 3000 --------------------------------------------------- LISAsoft is part of the A2end Group of Companies http://www.ardec.com.au http://www.lisasoft.com http://www.terrapages.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Geoserver-devel mailing list Geoserver-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-devel
