Hi Sarthak,<br>
You will like get better answers to your question by going to the
OSGeo-Live email list.<br>
Re clarity on what is required for this project, no need to
apologise, as I think that we in the OSGeo-Live community need to
provide the clarity to ourselves. I'm hoping Massimo will respond
with some suggestions.<br>
Warm regards, Cameron<div><div class="h5"><br>

<p style="margin:0px 0px 1.2em!important">I read the blog and
last year's <a href="http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/proposal/public/google/gsoc2015/massimo_di_stefano/5643440998055936" target="_blank">proposal</a> and what I understood from it
is -<br>
1. "Create a notebook for OSgeo live (I am not very sure which
all topics will be covered in the notebook)." <br>
2. The project has already started last year and I have to add
more topics to it (Correct me if I am wrong).<br>
3. The notebook will contain description of the dataset and
some kind of code</p>
<p style="margin:0px 0px 1.2em!important">Right Now my
understanding is pretty vague, sorry for that.<br>
<br>
Can you please elaborate the idea so that I have a clearer
picture of what is needed in the project. And also what will
be the scope of the project (GSOC)?</p>
<p style="margin:0px 0px 1.2em!important">Would you like me to
do any qualification task to back my technical skills, I'll be
happy to do it.<br>

Sarthak,<br>
I'm CCing the other OSGeo-Live mentor, Massimo.<br>
I suggest you also CC our email list: <a href="mailto:Live-demo@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank"></a><a href="mailto:Live-demo@lists.osgeo.org" target="_blank">Live-demo@lists.osgeo.org</a>.<br>
<br>
The current OSGeo-Live proposal builds upon last year's work
from Massimo.<br>
Over the last couple of days, Massimo and I have been
debating the focus of Notebooks, and I'll ask Massimo to
describe his suggestion to you.<br>
<br>
For me, I think the core of OSGeo-Live is to provide tools
which make it easy for other developers to demonstrate their
applications, and to do this in a way that is easy to
maintain long term. Background here:<br>
<a href="http://cameronshorter.blogspot.com.au/2011/06/memoirs-of-cat-herder-coordinating.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">http://cameronshorter.blogspot.com.au/2011/06/memoirs-of-cat-herder-coordinating.html</a><br>
<br>
Notebooks, once adopted, should help with that.<br>
<br>
Other areas which would help include:<br>
* Setting up a process which makes translation easier<br>
* Improving packaging, in particular of java applications
within a debian based environment<br>
These last two ideas possibly won't qualify for GSoC
sponsorship (which is about coding)<br>
<br>
Warm regards,<br>
Cameron<br>

Hello devs,<br>
<br>
Myself Sarthak currently working under Dr. KS Rajan as
a research student in Spatial Informatics Lab, IIIT
hyderabad . I am currently working in spatial
databases by optimizing the performance of mongoDb for
spatial databases. Previously i have worked on
Billboard placement optimization problem(using QGIS)
and with pgRouting as a part of my previous GSOC
project. I also published a paper @FOSS4G south korea
last year where I came to know more about OSGEO live
and since then I am using it.<br>
<br>
I am an open source enthusiast and likes to contribute
to our OSGEO community. I am interested in working
with OsGeo Live as a part of GSOC project.<br>
<br>
I looked at the wiki page but couldn't get any good
insight of the project. Could you please give a brief
description of the project so that I can pitch my
ideas on it.<br>
<br>
Can someone please guide me in the same direction.
Attached is my resume.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Sarthak Agarwal<br>
