Sorry for cross posting, but > this does concern people on multiple mailing lists. > > I would like to announce the formation of a Fedora Geo Spin with tools > for integration into Open Street Map. For more information, please see > the following link: > > https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ynemoy/Fedora_Geo_Spin > > In short, the Fedora Geo Spin will be a respin of Fedora with packages > for doing OSM and cartography installed out of the box, or included on > a LiveCD and/or LiveUSB. For OSM people, the primary advantage is a > live usb stick that can be used at mapping parties to save time > configuring user computers to do mapping. The USB stick can then be > brought home, and the user can continue doing mapping there. For > Fedora people, it gives us better Fedora exposure. > > Right now, the spin is a draft, and once completed will be submitted > to the Fedora Spins process for approval and inclusion in Fedora as a > blessed spin. > > The link above will be the canonical todo list, for anyone looking to > participate. If you wish to help, please feel free to contact me on > or off these email lists. > > Cheers, > Yaakov Nemoy > > _______________________________________________ > Talk-us mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-us
