    * Abstract

This presentation will provide a lightening overview of all the 
applications on the OSGeo Live DVD.

The OSGeo Live DVD contains over 35 of the best Open Source GeoSpatial 
applications, bundled on an Xubuntu system. It is an excellent tool for 
demonstrating GeoSpatial Open Source, using with tutorials and 
workshops, or providing to potenial new users.

The presentation will be very useful for OSGeo evangillists looking for 
material to present at other conferences, or attendees wishing to report 
back to workmates when returning to work.

At FOSS4G 2009, attendees not familiar with the OSGeo stack noted that 
it would have been useful to attend an overview of the FOSS stack at the 
conference start to help select which presentations to attend. Hence, we 
suggest this presentation is presented early in the conference.
