All, I've watched this progress leading up to the Sydney event from the sidelines. I have a question about the final intent of the product though. Is this intended as a learning tool, a production implementation of a stack or ???
I think this question needs to have some clarification put to it, especially with regard to naming. Also, there might be more than one final version of things depending on use, so some sort of naming convention might be useful as well. Also, I've become interested my self with building USB based systems that work similarly, and seem to span OSs a little easier. At least based on the traffic I saw in the list leading up to Sydney. On USB for many OS's. I'm also pondering if there might be a method that allow for mixing the two, VM and USB(native OS based) I have many business interests related to this, most recently emergency management, but port data stores are also of interest as well as syncing of datastores, as in collecting offline and syncing when network available. Just thought I would chime in here on these point. I have a few other too. bobb >>> Ricardo Pinho <[email protected]> 10/31/09 3:31 AM >>> Hi, This question has crossed my mind quite a bit and I think we should come up with an answer together: “How to continue using OSGeo hosting platform for developing Arramagong/LiveDVD/GISVM project?” There are many distinct tools and references on the internet for this project: a) Several Wiki pages: http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GISVM_Build http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc_Packages b) Svn trunk: https://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd/gisvm/ c) Trac platform https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/livedvd/gisvm d) Download site: http://download.osgeo.org/livedvd/index.html e) Live-Demo mailing list http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/live-demo/ f) Arramagong site http://www.arramagong.com g) GISVM site http://gisvm.com So, how can we organize it on a simple structure for simplicity and integration of all these? I understand that this is the result from joining several projects and products. But there are now too many names involved on this initiative. This doesn’t help the clarification for user and developer understanding.. Even I get confused about this and explaining it is even harder! My opinion is that we should start to agree on defining “one unique name” for the process of building the install script repository and the resulting Virtual Machine development build. Then there could be several names for resulting products like: Arramagong, LiveDVD, GISVM, etc. But this is only a start-up suggestion, and I would appreciate others thoughts about this… Thank you, Ricardo Pinho ____________________________________________________________________________________ Veja quais são os assuntos do momento no Yahoo! +Buscados http://br.maisbuscados.yahoo.com _______________________________________________ Live-demo mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo _______________________________________________ Live-demo mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/live-demo
