I'm sharing this conversation about including THREDDS on OSGeo-Live.<br>
I'd be interested to hear thoughts on Ethan's comments about Docker.<br>
<br>
Ethan,<br>
The next step in including THREDDS to OSGeo-Live is to officially
apply, as per:<br>

If you wish to join our next release then please send us an email in
the next week officially asking to apply.<br>
<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<br>

<div>I do not mind at all if you share and move this over to the
OSGeo-Live list. We have team meetings every Thursday, so I
will be sure to bring this up tomorrow to get a feel for it.
One question off the top of my head is do you support using
Docker to install software? I know it's not mentioned in the
wiki, but it makes installation of the THREDDS Data Server
pretty painless, and is what we have moved to for running our
training workshop.</div>

Thanks for getting back. Do you mind if I share our emails

Great to hear that THREDDS is going strong.<br>
<br>
My key question is whether THREDDS wishes to be included
on OSGeo-Live?<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://live.osgeo.org"
target="_blank">http://live.osgeo.org</a><br>
It is an excellent outreach and marketing tool for Open
Source projects, which is handed out on USBs/DVDs at
conferences, used by educators in virtual machines in
workshops and training programs, and of course from our
website.<br>
<br>
We are right now kicking off the process for our next
release (see bottom of this email thread). The process for
on boarding new projects is described here:<br>

do), please start by emailing an application to our email
list (as explained in link above).<br>

</div>
<div>Thank you for considering the addition of the
THREDDS project in OSGeo-Live. First and most
importantly, I want to assure you that the
THREDDS project has not stalled and is indeed
still active. Our latest release for both
netCDF-Java and the THREDDS Data Server is
version 4.6.3, and was released on 31 August
2015.</div>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>We are approaching our next release, and hope
to have it out by the end of the year (v4.6.4).
Note that most of our active development has
been on v5.0, which includes a major rewrite and
extension to the way gridded datasets are
handled in general. This release will also
included the latest version of ncWMS (a.k.a.
edal-java). We hope to have a beta available
sometime in December.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>While the original lead developer, John
Caron, is no longer with Unidata, the THREDDS
team is quite strong, and Unidata has doubled
down on its commitment to the THREDDS stack - no
worries of this project becoming abandonware.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If you would like to get an idea of current
participation in the project, including external
contributors, please see our github project page
(includes both netCDF-Java and the THREDDS Data
Server):</div>

Are you the right person to talk to about
THREDDS?<br>
THREEDS [1] has previously been suggested
as a candidate for inclusion on
OSGeo-Live, but more recently I've heard
rumours of a lack of activity from the
THREEDS community.<br>
