[Live-demo] RC4 Build and Docs Styles

[maplabs at light42.com]

hi all-
  (just back, catching up)
 
install_gisdata.sh had a bug in the last build (?)
so you might want to just run that one script manually 
 
   sudo bin/install_gisdata.sh
 
you ought to end up with a database in postgres thats usable for 
building examples, quickstarts, whatever.. 
 
  best regards
    -Brian
