Hi,

I'm fixing some of the broken OSGeo Live links. The GDAL quickstart (https://live.osgeo.org/en/quickstart/gdal_quickstart.html) includes a link to the removed wiki:

> Read more about this in the RasterTutorial https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/UserDocs/RasterProcTutorial.

Is there an equivalent in the GDAL docs or should it simply be removed?

The other link is in https://live.osgeo.org/en/overview/gdal_overview.html: https://trac.osgeo.org/gdal/wiki/FAQGeneral#WhatlicensedoesGDALOGRuse - I'll update this to point to https://gdal.org/en/latest/license.html

Seth
