[Live-demo] Re: can we update adhoc doc generation every hour?

[Alex Mandel]

Paul,

There shouldn't be any problem including it in the Windows installer
directory (Did you mention how big the installer is?). I think the point
that Hamish is making is that it might be confusing to users as it will
be the only application listed that isn't ready to run, and won't be on
the mini iso or virtual machine. So we'll just need to add an asterisk
and a note on the quickstart that makes that clear.

Box : This application is for Windows only and requires installation.
Installation files are included on the full ISO version of OSGeo-Live or
may be downloaded from ...link....


This is somewhat uncharted territory so have a some patience while we
work out the best way.

Thanks,
Alex
