<p>We are starting to build the 4.5 <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://live.osgeo.org" title="http://live.osgeo.org">OSGeo-Live</a>
DVD and want to hear from all included projects, translators,
packagers, users, testers or others who wish to help improve
OSGeo-Live. OSGeo-Live 4.5 will be released mid March 2011,
ready for a number of big GeoSpatial conferences soon after. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Focus on this next release will be on improved Quality and
Translating documentation. <o:p></o:p></p>
<h2><a moz-do-not-send="true"
name="Packaged_projects_-_which_version.3F"
id="Packaged_projects_-_which_version.3F"></a><span
class="mw-headline">Packaged projects - which version?</span><o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>Could each project please tell us which version is intended
to be included. Status is maintained <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Al9zh8DjmU_RdGIzd0VLLTBpQVJuNVlHMlBWSDhKLXc&hl=en_GB#gid=8"
title="https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0Al9zh8DjmU_RdGIzd0VLLTBpQVJuNVlHMlBWSDhKLXc&hl=en_GB#gid=8">here</a>.
Understanding what will, or will not change helps us
coordinate reviewers and testers. We will be building from the
Xubuntu 10.04 base, which is the same as last release. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>If you have a established, stable project which you would
like included on OSGeo-Live, then please talk to us about it.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<h2><a moz-do-not-send="true"
name="Use_Natural_Earth_dataset_for_examples"
id="Use_Natural_Earth_dataset_for_examples"></a><span
class="mw-headline">Use Natural Earth dataset for examples</span><o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>In order to ensure consistency and reduce disk space used, we
ask that, where appropriate, examples use the common Natural
Earth dataset, as explained <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Add_Project#Example_Datasets"
title="http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Add_Project#Example_Datasets">here</a>.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<h2><a moz-do-not-send="true" name="Translations"
id="Translations"></a><span class="mw-headline">Translations</span><o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>We expect to have main pages, Project Overviews and possibly
OGC Standard Overviews translated into multiple languages for
this next release. People have already translated much of the
documentation into German, Spanish, Italian, Japanese and
Greek. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Could all projects please update your English Project
Overviews as soon as you can to give translators enough time
to translate. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Please contact us if you are able to help with translation,
or would like to translate a new language. The process is
described <a moz-do-not-send="true"

<h2><a moz-do-not-send="true" name="Quick_Starts"
id="Quick_Starts"></a><span class="mw-headline">Quick Starts</span><o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>Half the packaged projects had Quick Starts written for the
last release (4.0) and we'd like to see Quick Starts for all
projects for the next release. One of our users has
volunteered to review Quick Starts for usability and help
projects capture screen grabs. This is a big job and we'd like
to hear from anyone else who'd can help out. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Again, could projects please update Quick Starts early to
allow time for review and screen grabs. <o:p></o:p></p>
<h2><a moz-do-not-send="true" name="User_Testing"
id="User_Testing"></a><span class="mw-headline">User Testing</span><o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>With ~ 50 applications to be packaged on the next OSGeo-Live,
our core OSGeo-Live team have not had time to run all the
Quickstart applications. We would really like some help. If
you have very little experience with OSGeo software, then all
the better, as you would be like a typical first time user of
OSGeo-Live. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Running this user testing is one of the best ways to become
familiar with the breath of OSGeo Software available. If
interested, please join the OSGeo List, and start running
Quick Starts as soon as they have been completed by projects.
<o:p></o:p></p>

id="OGC_Standard_Overviews"></a><span class="mw-headline">OGC
Standard Overviews</span><o:p></o:p></h2>
<p>The OGC have already written <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://live.osgeo.org/standards/standards.html"
title="http://live.osgeo.org/standards/standards.html">one
page overviews</a> for half the OGC standards and have
committed to writing up the remaining standards for then next
release. We will be calling on the standards community to help
review these standards to ensure they are accurate, clear and
understandable. <o:p></o:p></p>
