Hi all,<br>
Nicolas has recently identified that the OSGeo-Live QGIS quickstart
which describes how to use GRASS within QGIS is incorrect. (I assume
due to updates).<br>
<br>
Is there anyone with experience with this who can help us update
this quickstart within the next 48 hours (before we cut our Release
Candidate)? Otherwise we will need to comment this out of our
Quickstart.<br>
<br>
The previous quickstart can be seen here:<br>

<br>
Nicolas' review as a git pull request here:<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/pull/108">https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive-doc/pull/108</a><br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<br>

<div>Hi Cameron,<br>
<br>
</div>
I made a pull request for the QGIS quickstart review
I made.<br>
</div>
. screenshots are mostly updated (except for GRASS and
OSM, shutter crashed at that moment)<br>
<br>
</div>
. I changed some texts<br>
<br>
</div>
.Wasn't able to update the whole GRASS section. It changed
too much from the last version and I wasn't able to
locate the mentionned tools. I'm sorry about that.<br>
<br>
</div>
.There is 2 screenshot that I retake in 1024x768:
qgis_toolbox.png and qgis_enable_providers.png. But I didn't
know how to remove it trough git. You just delete them and
use git add on them ?<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>So QGIS needed a lot of work, most is done, but the GRASS
section needs a complete rebuild by someone who knows the
tool.<br>
<br>
</div>

Cheers,<br>

I'll look for the mentionned changes. <br>

My name and surname are already in the google

By the way, my first name is Nicolas, and my
family name is Roelandt. So you can call me
Nicolas, which is the same as Nicholas in the

Sorry it confuses you.<br>

I just realised I've used your

By the way, I'm not sure if your

Thanks Tim for suggestions.<br>
Nathan, updates would be
welcome. Thanks for the
offer. You probably want to
look at Tim's suggestions
below. I note he also had
attachments.<br>
<br>
If you are able to update
sooner in the week rather
than later, that would be
great, as OSGeo-Live
translators are translating
this week, and we strike our
release candidate next
Monday 14 March.<br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<br>

Hi all,
I haven't had any luck connecting with the QGIS community, and since writing this email a few days back, Angelos reports that we now have QGIS 2.14.0 working on OSGeo-Live.
Can we please, please, please get some help working out if our Project Overview does QGIS justice in its description of QGIS features.

<pre>I’m sorry we are all a bit pooped from getting 2.14 out and the subsequent email barrage etc.
Looking at the above page I would say its still probably fine like that. I don’t have time to update the docs directly, but if someone else does, here are my suggested edits:
1) Add 2.5D rendering support to the feature list
2) Change the logo to the new QGIS logo (attached as SVG)
3) Update the screenshot to the attached
4) Update the current version to 2.14
Thanks for making the effort to include us on the live CD!

<pre>And if we could get someone to check that QGIS's quickstart is still valid that would be wonderful.
How to add/update docs is described here:

<pre>Hi Tim, Nathan, Larry, Alex,
The OSGeo-Live Project Overview for qgis currently describes version 2.4.0, however version 2.12.1 is installed on the next OSGeo-Live9.5 release.
Are there any features which should be added to the Project Overview, or does the doc just require a version update?
You can see the latest nightly OSGeo-Live docs here: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://adhoc.osgeo.osuosl.org/livedvd/docs/en/overview/overview.html" target="_blank">http://adhoc.osgeo.osuosl.org/livedvd/docs/en/overview/overview.html</a>
