Hi listers,
as space is running short on the ISO we need to reconsider sizings. In today's
OSGel Live chat I was tasked to initiate this discussion. Current disk footprint
of each application is available from
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Al9zh8DjmU_RdGIzd0VLLTBpQVJuNVlHMlBWSDhKLXc#gid=13
Top riders currently:
- mapguide: 550mb
- marble: 300 mb (includes disk caching!)
- grass >250mb
One way of saving space is to enlarge it (ie, go to 8 GB) which is unclear due
to some unresolved questions; another one is to deflate unused datasets, a third
one to share data among applications.
Can I ask all those with 3-digit disk hunger to chime into this discussion.
thanks,
Peter
