<p>After much hard work from the OSGeo-Live build team, we release
today the first alpha version of OSGeo-Live 10.0.<br>
<br>
It is based on the new Ubuntu 16.04 Xenial Long Term Support
(LTS). Over the last 6 weeks since Ubuntu 16.04 was released, we
have ported the entire build system to the new LTS and we merged
packaging effort from DebianGIS and UbuntuGIS, bringing most of
the recent geospatial packages to Xenial. The result is now shared
with the OSGeo community through the updated UbuntuGIS
repositories (Testing and Unstable).<br>
<br>
We encourage all OSGeo-Live projects to download OSGeo-Live alpha1
[1], test your project with this new release and make sure it
works as expected. If your project is missing from the iso, it
means that the installer failed completely and needs extra
attention from you. Please report back issues to our Trac instance
[2] (and let us know what you have tested on our mailing list
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:live-demo@lists.osgeo.org">live-demo@lists.osgeo.org</a>. We track this information in our status
spreadsheet [3]). We love pro-active projects we don't have to
chase, so please prepare your code to work on the new LTS and send
us a pull request with your installer changes.<br>
<br>
We have a lot of work to do and a tight schedule if we are to
release in time for FOSS4G in Bonn. Our next milestone is to reach
beta stage by the end of June.<br>
