[Live-demo] Planning for next OSGeo-Live release?

[Astrid Emde]

Hi all,

I agree with Angelos arguments and would like to go for 6.5 release.

It would be nice for the FOSSGIS e.V. to offer a fresh version for FOSSGIS
conference 2013 and Linuxday in spring/summer. It is more or less a
routine now to print the DVDs every half a year and update the DVD cover.

A new version of Mapbender on 6.5 would be fine too.

We would get more languages for documentations and maybe the pdf
documentation will be ready.

If it is not too much work for the core osgeo-live team it would be nice
to keep the 6 month rhythm for the moment.

+1 from me for the 6.5 release

Astrid
