Jackie,
Great to hear your interest in OSGeo-Live. I'd also point you at:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Add_Project

One of our big pressures to address is the size of MapGuide, and the lack of space left on OSGeo-Live. I think we should be able to work something out, but our focus will be on trying to work out smart ways to save space.

Hi,

Given my recent successes building the latest version of MapGuide and FDO
for Ubuntu 11.10 and 12.04, I'd like to take a look at the (strong)
possibility of re-introducing MapGuide Open Source back into the OSGeo
LiveDVD.

However, I am currently not familiar with the LiveDVD build process. Is
there any documentation that can point me in the right direction?

Jackie,

Just have a look at the existing mapguide install script.
http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd/gisvm/trunk/bin/
We've kept the old script and just disabled it in recent releases since
it wasn't working.

Basically each major app has a bash shell script, if available it should
just do apt-get install package. But when debs are not available you
have to script the download, compile/setup and install.

If possible the best plan of attack is to get a deb package built, on
the ubuntugis ppa.

Thanks,
Alex
