I've written a draft press release for the start of our LiveDVD process, which I hope we can put out on Thursday 10 June.
Before putting out the release, I hope we can do the following:
* Get the latest version of the website working (Alex is working on this)
* Get a draft of a Quick Start template. (On my todo)
* Ideally build 4.0alpha2 with sun-java6 installed, and make available for projects to try.  (I can build this tomorrow, if someone can fix the java install script, and another other scripts)

Bonus tasks:
* remove reference to arramagong in install scripts

Building OSGeo Live DVD for FOSS4G 2010

10 June 2010

We have started building this year's OSGeo-Live DVD which will be handed out to every delegate at FOSS4G 2010, as well as many other Geospatial events.

This year, OSGeo-Live will be made even sexier and more professional by including:

We want to hear from:

  • Established GeoSpatial projects who wish to include their project in OSGeo-Live
  • Workshop leaders or trainers who wish to use OSGeo-Live. We'd like to know how we can help you.
  • Project representatives - update application version in application spreadsheet, and then update application installer and docs.

Milestones

  • 5 July 2010: Feature freeze
  • 2 August 2010: Final delivery for User Acceptance Test
