[FOSS4G-Oceania] Community Day feedback and OSGeoLive suggestion

[Cameron Shorter]

Hi David,

As discussed, re Community Day text, 
https://foss4g-oceania.org/program/community-day , it would be good to 
have a contact person, or people, to add credibility and a personal 
touch to each proposal.

And here is my proposed text for an OSGeoLive event:

*OSGeoLive Quickstart refresh and/or Move to the cloud*

OSGeoLive is distribution of Open Source Geospatial Software 
preconfigured with ~ 50 applications, datasets, project overviews and 
quickstarts. It is used at conferences and training sessions around the 
world and is often people's first exposure to OSGeo software.

We have two things we'd like to tackle:

1. Run all the quickstarts, update screen shots, correct docs or write 
bug reports. New users see problems in documentation that developers are 
blind to. And we are aware that many of our Quickstarts have become 
dated when software was updated.

2. For techies: We would love to be able to install OSGeoLive in the 
cloud, and are looking for some techies to help work out how to do it. 
Having a cloud version of OSGeoLive will make it much more accessible as 
a learning platform.
