Good idea!

We had a similar idea on the CrisisCommons wiki - the "CrisisCamp on a stick"(http://wiki.crisiscommons.eu/wiki/CrisisCamp_on_a_stick) - but like a lot of things CC related, this is in need of updating (Firefox 3.6.10? Good grief!! :) ).

Dear HOTties,

Has anyone tried building a USB Stick that runs all the needed
applications for an OSM Training?

For a series of training we will conduct, we are anticipating a lot of
different configurations and MS Windows versions.  They may use a
computer lab or their own laptops.

Instead of just giving the participants copies of the software
installers, we are thinking of building a PortableApp [0] stick
containing all the needed apps and resources.

Anyone tried this approach?  How is it effective?

A few things we want in the stick are:
* JOSM including all the necessary plugins (FieldPapers, Notes,
DirectUpload, GPXEdit, Building tools, Presets, GeoChat, Measurement,
Mirrored downloads, Reverter, Terracer)
* GPSBabel
* QGIS
* PDF reader
* Firefox or Chrome
* 7-Zip
* ClamWin
* Notepad++
* Learning materials (either offline or pdf version of learnOSM)
* Installers - installers of the above software
