We are starting to build the 5.5 OSGeo-Live <http://live.osgeo.org> DVD
which will be released in March 2012, ready for the Spanish FOSS4G,
FOSSGIS Germany, GISRUK in England and the MapWindow/FOSS4G Regional
Netherlands Conference, among others. We would like to hear from anyone
wishing to add new projects to OSGeo-Live, anyone wishing to extend or
add extra translations, or anyone who has ideas on how we should shape
the upcoming release.
Which project version?
Could each installed project please update our status sheet to note the
expected version to be installed on OSGeo-Live 5.5. Status sheet

Key Priorities for next release

We have reached our DVD size limits, and need to be creative about
saving space
Package Updates

Quickstart Reviews
We have Project Quickstarts, but most haven't gone through
comprehensive review
Testing
With Quality being a key focus area for us, we need lots of help
with testing.
