[Live-demo] pywps to osgeo-live

Fri Aug 1 13:46:07 PDT 2014

Hi,

I've updated the installation script in svn and did some minor fix in
the overview file for PyWPS

Jachym

P.S. If I did not stated this yet: It's clear, PyWPS will most likely
not included in next release, which is ok.

> About the questions:
>
> H1: Please describe your application.
>
> Q1: What is its name?
> A1: PyWPS
>
> Q2: What is the home page URL?
> A2: http://pywps.wald.invation.org
>
> Q3: Which OSI approved Open Source Licence is used?
> A3: GNU/GPL
>
> Q4: What does the application do and how does it add value to the
> GeoSpatial stack of software?
> A4: Implementation of OGC WPS on server side, pure Python, easy and
> fast to setup
>
> Q5: Does the application make use of OGC standards? Which versions of
> the standards? Client or server? You may wish to add comments about
> how standards are used.
> A5: OGC WPS, 1.0.0, Server
>
> Q6: What language is it written in?
> A6: Python
>
> Q7: Which version of the application should be included in the next
> OSGeo-Live release?
> A7: 3.2.2
>
> H2. Stability is very important to us on OSGeo-Live. If a new user
> finds a bug in one application, it will tarnish the reputation of all
> other OSGeo-Live applications as well. (We pay most attention to the
> following answers):
>
> Q8: If risk adverse organisations have deployed your application into
> production, it would imply that these organisations have verified the
> stability of your software. Has the application been rolled out to
> production into risk (ideally risk adverse) organisations? Please
> mention some of these organisations?
> A8: According to user feedback, e.g. Allianze Insurance company uses
> PyWPS on it's backend of some applications.
>
> Q9: Ohloh provides metrics to help assess the health of a project. Eg:
> http://adhoc.osgeo.osuosl.org/livedvd/docs/en/metrics.html Could you
> please ensure that your project is registered with Ohloh, and Ohloh
> has been updated to reference the correct code repository(s) for your
> project. What is the Ohloh URL for your project?
> A9: https://www.openhub.net/p/3860
>
> Q10: What is the size of the user community? You can often answer this
> by mentioning downloads, or describing a healthy, busy email list?
> A10: 95 Non-digested Members of Pywps-devel, 24 Digested Members of
> Pywps-devel, 23,701 downloads reported by the Wald.intevation.org
> server
>
> Q11: What is the size of your developer community?
> A11: 2-3 man
>
> Q12: Do you have a bug free, stable release?
> A12: We hope so
>
> Q13: Please discuss the level of testing that your project has gone through.
> A13: Mixture of unit and integration tests is applied.
>
> Q14: How long has the project has had mature code.
> A14: Project was started in 2006 and since then, it aims to provide
> stable and suitable code. Compatibility changes were taken during
> major releases. Currently, new branch (PyWPS-4) is being developed,
> due to heavy changes in geo-python environement.
>
> Q15: OSGeo-Live is targeted at applications that people can use rather
> than libraries. Does the application have a user interface (possibly a
> command line interface) that a user can interact with? (We do make an
> exception for Incubated OSGeo Libraries, and will include Project
> Overviews for these libraries, even if they don't have a user
> interface.)
> A15: No, just coding & XML
>
> Q16: We give preference to OSGeo Incubated Projects, or Projects which
> are presented at FOSS4G conferences. If your project is involved in
> OSGeo Incubation, or has been selected to be presented at FOSS4G, then
> please mention it.
> A16: It's in Labs
>
> Q17: With around 50 applications installed on OSGeo-Live, us core
> packagers do not have the time to liaise with every single project
> email list for each OSGeo-Live release. So we require a volunteer (or
> two) to take responsibility for liaising between OSGeo-Live and the

> the install scripts and English documentation are updated by someone

> Install from UbuntuGIS or DebianGIS
> Install .deb files from a PPA
> Write a custom install script
>
> Q18: Can you please discuss how your application will be installed.
> A18: Using standard python setup.py script. (The application does not
> have to "installed" at all, can run from source code directory
> directly)
>
> Q19: OSGeo-Live is memory and disk constrained. Can the application
> run in 512 Meg of RAM?
> A19: The application has very small impact on memory usage
>
> Q20: How much disk space will be required to install the application
> and a suitable example application?
> A20: Source code has about 6MB code (including documentation)
>
> Q21: We aim to reduce disk space by having all applications make use
> of a common dataset. We encourage applications to make use of the
> example datasets already installed:
>
> http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Add_Project#Example_Datasets If

> A23: Standard python setup.py install will be enough, so no need to
