Hi all,

I would like to propose officially adding the OWSLib Python library as
a project to OSGeoLive. OWSLib is already installed on OSGeoLive and
is an OSGeo Community Project.
A project overview and quickstart are available in a PR at:
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/pull/893
Below hopefully covers all the questions outlined at
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeolive/wiki/Projects/How_to_apply
I am happy to act as the project liaison.

Summary
--------------

Name: OWSLib
Description: OWSLib is a Python package for client programming with
Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) web service interface standards, and
their related content models.

In terms of stability, OWSLib has been developed continually since
2007. It is a cornerstone of the geospatial Python ecosystem, and is
included in software such as QGIS. In the last month it has been
downloaded 150,128 times, and in total 4.93 million times. It has a
test suite, with coverage of 60% -
https://coveralls.io/builds/73820767.
OWSLib has featured in several FOSS4G conferences, and in workshops
such as "Doing Geospatial in Python":
https://geopython.github.io/geopython-workshop/

It does not have a user interface, but Jupyter notebooks have been
added to allow interaction using a UI. See PRs:
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-Notebooks/pull/34,
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-Notebooks/pull/35, and
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-Notebooks/pull/36.

Installation
----------------

OWSLib is installed already as part of the base_python.sh script using
apt-get install:
https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/blob/master/bin/base_python.sh#L40.
It is packaged as part of UbuntuGIS:
https://launchpad.net/~ubuntugis/+archive/ubuntu/ubuntugis-unstable/+packages?field.name_filter=owslib

Let me know if there are any further details required,

Seth Girvin and the OWSLib team.
