I'm interested to know how i3geo has progressed since our last
discussion.<br>
We have started our next OSGeo-Live release, and you might
consider that i3geo is ready to re-apply.<br>

Basing us on the requirements that you gave us to be included in
the

current edition of the OSGeo live dvd we only had have to
deliver a
<br>
quickstart guide and an overview guide in English for today.
But

considering the recent elements that has originated some doubts
about if

I3Geo should be accepted, we decide wait until we could have a

Sus comentarios son siempre bienvenidos, pero creemos que lo
mejor

que podemos hacer es no estar en esta edición live-dvd y esperar
hasta
<br>
la próxima.
<br>
<br>
Basándonos en los requerimientos que usted nos dio para ser
incluido en el
<br>
edición del live-dvd OSGeo sólo teníamos que entregar un Guía de
inicio
<br>
rápido y una guía de instalación en Inglés para hoy pero
teniendo en
<br>
cuenta los elementos recientes que ha originado algunas dudas
acerca de
<br>
si se debe aceptar I3Geo, decidimos esperar hasta que podamos
tener un

The decision is not yet final. Consider this a review process
that
<br>
leads to including the software in the Live.
<br>
Many other projects have remained in beta for 1 version of the
DVD in
<br>
order to improve such details and then were included without
any
<br>
issues. So don't get disappointed about this process.
<br>
Personally, I would like to test the QuickStart in full extent
to make
<br>
a decision. I would like to see the new user experience first.

The decision is not final. We wanted to discuss it more with
your
<br>
community and help create a roadmap for how to get i3geo
onto OSGeo
<br>
live. The worst case scenario is that we include the install
script and
<br>
docs so users can trigger a web download to install it
themselves.
<br>
<br>
I'm of the opinion that we should include software that
works. If your
<br>
software works as intended and is use by a large number of
people, then
<br>
we just need to get you some help translating so that users
who don't
<br>
speak Portuguese can use it.
<br>
<br>
Please let us know how we might be able to help reach these
goals.
<br>
<br>
Thanks,

In fact, the i3Geo is not fully translated into English
and Spanish. A
<br>
small part of the interface is translated, but the user
manuals and
<br>
administrator are not.
<br>
I do not know if in 6 months be able to translate
everything, but we
<br>
will work for it.
<br>
On the issue of code quality, there are always favorable
and
<br>
unfavorable
<br>
opinions. I also do not know the blog has been mentioned,
but there is
<br>
an ongoing effort to improve the code, and the opinions of
experts are
<br>
always welcome.
<br>
In relation to not include in the next version, I'm sad,
but the only
<br>
thing I can do is keep working on software evolution. We
engage in a
<br>
lot
<br>
of preparation for i3Geo live-dvd and I was surprised with
the
<br>
decision,
<br>
but that's life ...
<br>
<br>
<br>
De fato, o i3Geo não está totalmente traduzido para o
Inglês e
<br>
Espanhol.
<br>
Uma pequena parte da interface está traduzida, mas os
manuais de
<br>
usuário
<br>
e administrador não estão.
<br>
Não sei se em 6 meses conseguiremos traduzir tudo, mas
trabalharemos
<br>
para isso.
<br>
Sobre a questão da qualidade do código, sempre existem
opiniões
<br>
favoráveis e desfavoráveis. Eu também não conheço o blog
que foi
<br>
mencionado, mas há um esforço contínuo de aprimoramento do
código, e as
<br>
opiniões dos especialistas são sempre bem vindas.
<br>
Em relação a não incluir na próxima versão, eu fico
triste, mas a única
<br>
coisa que eu posso fazer é continuar trabalhando na
evolução do
<br>
software. Nos dedicamos muito na preparação do i3Geo para
o live-dvd e
<br>
fiquei surpreso com a decisão, mas é a vida...

<br>
<br>
At our weekly OSGeo-Live IRC meeting [1], we discussed
which new
<br>
applications to include on OSGeoLive.
<br>
In discussing i3geo, we had concerns that about i3geo's
readiness for
<br>
our 6.5 release timeframe, and suspect that it would be
better for
<br>
i3geo to target the osgeolive 7.0 release (6 months
later).
<br>
<br>
In particular, it seems that i3geo's English interface
is not as good
<br>
as the Spanish interface yet.
<br>
dbb also mentioned a blog post discussing the quality of
the i3geo
<br>
code. (I haven't seen the mentioned blog)
<br>
<br>
What this would probably mean would be that we'd include
the i3geo
<br>
installer (so developers can test the application) but
not actually
<br>
install the application.
