Hi all,

After the last round of e-mails about the base OS for OSGeoLive 7.0,
this is the first alpha based on Xubuntu LTS 12.04.2:
http://aiolos.survey.ntua.gr/gisvm/7.0/
http://osprey.ucdavis.edu/downloads/osgeo/gisvm/gisvm/7.0alpha1/

I think it is a good time for projects to start updating their
installers.

Cheers,
Angelos


Angelos,
Thanks for keeping your eye on our osgeo live schedule, and starting
the release process.
For our own records, I suggest that we copy these types of emails
into a press releases:
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc#Press_Releases



Hi Cameron,

This was not intended to be a press release, just a first alpha
release. We have done lots of those without writing to the wiki.
I suggest we make a proper press release as per
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc_Press_Release_27 to kick off.

Thoughts?
Angelos


Angelos, I agree. Here is a draft press release for review. Lets give
people 24 hours to tweak, then we can send it out.

Angelos are you up for trying a build based on the 64+mac iso? Just gave out another 25 flash drives, and at least 3 people asked about Mac. If we're going to stick to 12.04.x I think this might be a good build to make 32 and 64 builds. Something like DVDs and VM are 32 bit, mini (ie intended for flash drives) and VM are 64bit (4 total).

Thanks,
Alex

PS ~ 2-3 weeks I'll have networking straightened out on my cluster and can probably start making new VMs.

Hi Alex and thanks for starting up the 64bit discussion, we have to make a new plan, I agree. I would prefer for us to start building a new mini upon 64bit base and offer to the final users both 32 and 64 bit builds. We should probably only offer VM in 32 bit since under virtualization it would not make sense to have 2 versions. As for the DVD, as long as it is a product based on mini, without extra build cost, I am ok with offering both architectures, since this would be a last step after mini gets released.

The only problem I see is our testing capacity :(

Cheers,
Angelos
