I see your point, but all things considered I think we will wait until the 10.0 release. We can always try out the install/build process early in the 10.0 schedule.<br>

May I ask what objectives we should aim for in terms of "open development" to ensure we meet the requirements in time for OSGeo-Live 10.0 ?</blockquote>

<div class="gmail_extra">By "open development" I just wanted to emphasize that by source code public repository I (and I suppose most people) mean a central place around the development happens rather than merely a place where one can get the source code. OSGeo

+1 Working toward OSGeo Incubation covers the key OSGeo-Live requirements (including public source code).<br>
<br>
With regards to including GPlates on OSGeo-Live for 9.5. One thing that other projects have done in the past is take a couple of releases to get included.<br>
<br>
For the first time, the installer is included (but not executed), or included and executed (such that the application is installed), but not made publicly visible till a future release.<br>
This gives GPlates the opportunity to try out the install process, without a strict deadline to get things running.<br>
<br>
This might be a path for GPlates to consider?<br>
<br>
Warm regards,<br>
