Hi Nicolas,

Here is an alternative wording which you might want to consider for a presentation:

**

*Title: OSGeoLive - State of the union*

*

Description:

The OSGeoLive project has consistently and sustainably been attracting contributions from ~ 50 projects for over a decade. Why has it been successful? What has attracted hundreds of diverse people to contribute to this project? How are technology changes affecting OSGeoLive, and by extension, the greater OSGeo ecosystem? Where is OSGeoLive heading and what are the challenges and opportunities for the future?

In this presentation we will touch on the principles that helped us become successful. We will cover current opportunities and challenges, and why people are using OSGeoLive now. And we will postulate where we think we might be heading next.


OSGeoLive is a ​Lubuntu based distribution of Geospatial Open Source Software, preconfigured with software, data, project overviews and quickstarts. It is great for testing the latest OSGeo software, using in workshops and tutorials, and has become a valuable marketing pipeline for OSGeo projects.

Hi Cameron,
There is still time 😊.
The end is in 2 days. I submitted to be sure but we can edit the proposal.

So no worries 😁

    Hi Nicholas, I have some time today to review your proposal. Am I
    too late? Have you already submitted it?

    Hi,

    Can someone tweet with the OSGeoLive twitter account that we send
    a proposal ?

    Thanks,

        Hi all,

        I also send a mail to Astrid and Angelos to join me on the
        proposal. If anyone wants to join, please tell me by mail.
        I'll send an invit.

        Best,

        Nicolas

            Hi Astrid, all,

            Thanks for the comments; I made the proposal like this:
            OSGeoLive is a self-contained bootable DVD, USB thumb
            drive or Virtual Machine based on Lubuntu, that allows
            you to try a wide variety of open source geospatial
            software without installing anything. It is composed
            entirely of free software, allowing it to be freely
            distributed, duplicated and passed around.
            It provides pre-configured applications for a range of
            geospatial use cases, including storage, publishing,
            viewing, analysis and manipulation of data. It also
            contains sample datasets and documentation.
            OSGeoLive is an OSGeo project used in several workshops
            at FOSS4Gs around the world.

            OSGeoLive 13.0 will be released at the end of July 2019
            ready for FOSS4G 2019.
            Still working on the improvements initiated for OSGeoLive
            12.0, it will embedded latest stable version of a vast
            choice of Open Source Geospatial software. The work on
            the geodata science with Python and  R stacks have also
            been continued. Documentation is also a big building area
            and we made a proposal to Google Season of Docs in order
            to get it even better. We would like to encourage people
            around the world to help us translate it.
            This presentation will reflect what we did for OSGeoLive
            13.0, what choices have been made, what we plan to do for
            14.0 and after.

            We still can change things but I hit the 1250 characters
            limit and had to rephrase a bit.

            Choice I made to questions:

            In which general topic would you include this submission?
            => Uses cases and applications

            In which general theme does this submission best fit?

            Software status, new development

            Please, rate your submission with respect to its
            technical complexity, from 1 - beginner to 4 - highly
            advanced

            1 - Minimal technical knowledge


            Please see screen captures in the google doc to see other
            options.

            I'll send the proposal today so we are not too late, but
            we can adjust in the coming days.

            Best,

            Nicolas

                Hello,

                looks very good.

                I added some comment and a sentence.

                But I would you can submit it like that.

                Maybe another sentence: We would like to encourage
                people around the
                world to get involved and to help with the translation.
