    Hi Luis,<br>
    Yes, I think that this OGC E-Leaning material would be an excellent
    candidate for including in OSGeo-Live documentation, once the
    documentation is suitably mature, and any packaging tweaks are
    addressed.<br>
    <br>
    I'm CCing the OSGeo-Live email list to see if there are others
    within the OSGeo-Live community with suggestions.<br>
    <br>
    Luis,<br>
    Do you have a timeframe in mind for a "version 1" of this training
    material? Where version 1 would have sufficient content and quality
    to be considered production worthy and something that we would
    consider worthy of including in OSGeo-Live. Version 1 might not
    include all standards, but would probably include quality
    descriptions of the most used standards.<br>
    <br>
    Cheers, Cameron<br>

            <div bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> Hi Luis,<br>
              You have some good material in place, and a good document
              structure.<br>
              I haven't had time to do much more than a quick skim, but
              have picked up on a couple of things.<br>
              (Hopefully you were looking for feedback?)<br>
              <br>
              I'm looking at the WMS Introduction page:<br>
              <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
                href="http://54.68.173.163/el/wms/text/basic-main.html">http://54.68.173.163/el/wms/text/basic-main.html</a><br>
              <br>
              The page is missing a date stamp. It would be useful for a
              reader to know if this page is still current? Possibly add
              a "Last Updated" tag or similar.<br>
              <br>
              Nice idea to have a History section.<br>
              This would probably be best structured as a table with:<br>
              <br>
              <version number> <Release date> <Summary of
              what changed since last release><br>
              <br>
              Somewhere, probably in a separate document, there should
              be a detailed description listing everything which has
              changed since the last release.<br>
              This will help implementers answer:<br>
              * If I upgrade a legacy system to a more recent OGC
              standard, what extra functionality will I gain? What
              incompatibility issues might be encountered, if any?<br>
              <br>
              <br>
              I like the "Relation to other Standards" section.<br>
              It is good to explain why WFS would be used instead of
              WMS. I suggest it would be valuable to explain the
              opposite as well. Why would you use WMS instead of WFS (or
              instead of WMTS)? <br>
              <br>
              Example:<br>
              I notice the example references an external URL ( <a
                moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
                href="http://metaspatial.net/">http://metaspatial.net/</a>
              ). For OGC branded material, I'd suggest that all examples
              or references maintained on OGC infrastructure, and not
              rely on a third party which may have different terms of
              service.<br>
              In particular, I'd suggest that all training material
              should make use of relative URLs for web services from
              training material. Ie, instead of referencing <a
                moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
                href="http://www.opengeospatial.org/">http://www.opengeospatial.org/</a><services>/wms.cgi<br>
              reference ../../<services>/wms/cgi<br>
              That way, the training material, along with all the
              examples can be copied into a virtual machine or similar
              and used in a classroom, or ...<br>
              (We follow this convention with the OSGeo-Live project).<br>
              <br>
              Warm regards,<br>
