[OSGeo-Discuss] GeoFOSS LiveDVD - test it before we burn it

[Tim Bowden]

I'm planning on using the live-DVD to load the OSGeo booth PC.  If
anyone wants to take advantage of the provided stack for loading some
demos, please drop me a line.  The plan atm is to have the PC wired to
the local lan, so it can offer web services etc locally if it is set up
in time.

Regards,
Tim Bowden
