<p>Hi John Hildenbandt,</p>
<p>Great to hear you will be at the community day, and I'm excited
by the possibility of being able to set up OSGeoLive in the cloud.</p>
<p>I'm keen to make sure we can make the day count and suggest it
would be good for us to work out what we want to achieve, identify
what is realistic, identify what we need to have ready in advance,
work out what volunteering opportunities there are (maybe some of
the people from your workshop might want to join us).</p>
<p>Do you have any suggested pre-reading links you'd suggest
pointing us at?</p>
<p>Cheers, Cameron<br>
</p>

<p>There are multiple possibilities, and I'm
interested to gauge your level of interest and
ability to commit.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>1. I understand you have created a OSGeo
workshop. Do you still have access to the
material? Are you interested in sharing it?
Ideally under some open license. I assume the
material will need to be updated to the latest
versions of software. Would you be interested in
helping do this? Would you be ok with someone else
updating your material? Would you be interested in
presenting at the FOSS4G conference in Melbourne?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>2. For OSGeo workshops, there is potential to
tailor them to work within the cloud. Is there
some arrangement that could be set up to have free
student accounts to support this?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>3. OSGeoLive is a Lubuntu linux distribution with
50 odd open source GIS applications + data +
project overviews and quickstarts. It is regularly
used within FOSS4G workshops, booted from a USB,
Virtual Machine (and sometimes from a DVD). It
would be great if we could extend it to work
within the cloud. I'm not sure how achievable this
would be, or how much work would be involved. It
would be great to tap into your experience in
helping answer some of these questions.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Hopefully there is a good business case for AWS
to support these initiatives. Effectively it would
be training GIS people how to use AWS.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thoughts?<o:p></o:p></p>

<p>Hi John,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thanks for getting back. Below are some of
the emails that we have been trading around
the idea of creating an OSGeo stack beginner
workshop, making use of OSGeoLive, and
potentially taking it all to the cloud.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>It would be great to loop you in on these
conversations. As Shaun has noticed, you have
shown how to get OSGeo in the cloud in a
workshop. We'd be keen to work out how we can
build upon that.<o:p></o:p></p>

style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Hi
folks,<br>
<br>
Shaun Kolomeitz and myself were recently
discussing the value that could <br>
be gained by setting up a "beginners OSGeo
full stack" workshop, which <br>
served multiple needs and communities.<br>
<br>
It would aim to help new users answer "when,
what and how should I use <br>
Open Source GIS".<br>
<br>
Initially we would target a workshop at
FOSS4G-Oceania [1] (in Melbourne <br>
Australia in November 2018)<br>
<br>
The aim would be to build upon OSGeo-Live [2],
with the intent that the <br>
training material would eventually become
distributed with OSGeo-Live. <br>
This brings the advantage that the training
course would be continually <br>
be getting updated with every software
distribution, and setup glitches <br>
would be significantly reduced because
everything would be pre-installed <br>
with OSGeo-Live.<br>
<br>
Ideally, we would be this course to be run on
the cloud. Again, the <br>
advantage here is that we would be taking
OSGeo-Live (along with OSGeo <br>
applications) into a cloud environment.<br>
<br>
In future versions, we would aim to team up
with geo4all, universities <br>
and educators, such that we can integrate
OSGeo-Live and courses, and <br>
help cross collaboration and maintenance
between projects, programmers <br>
and educators.<br>
<br>
The first thing we want to do is work out if
anyone is doing something <br>
similar, or have material we can make use of,
or have good ideas that we <br>
should incorporate, or who would like to join
us.<br>
<br>
Introducing Shaun:<br>
<br>
For those who don't know Shaun, he is someone
I've known for years. He <br>
has decades of experience with GIS, is an
advocate Open Source GIS, and <br>
is someone who has a track record of getting
things done.<br>

<p>Have you had any luck connecting
with AWS? I just noticed that two of
the presenters live here in
Australia. Herman Coomans even lives
in Melbourne. I reckon we might be
able to convince them to come along
to the upcoming FOSS4G workshop.<o:p></o:p></p>
