[Live-demo] OSGeo-Live team needs help: Someone who looks afterOSM data, tools and writes documentation is needed

[Brian M Hamlin]

Here is the ticket for the OSM City replacement task:
 
    https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/1698
 
Luca, Marco .. can you each log in to the trac system and add a simple 
comment on that ticket, to test ?
 
Can we each make a Pull Request using the current setup ?  Either 
using GitHub,
or OSGeo git (preferred)
 
  https://git.osgeo.org/gogs/osgeo/OSGeoLive
 
  best regards from Berkeley, California

       Hi Luca and Marco,

Thank you both for volunteering for this task. 

The current OSM setup is based on the following installers:

1. https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/blob/master/bin/install_mapnik.sh

Here we need to drop Tilelite and replace it with either Tilestache or
apache mod_tile. 
Both of them are already in our ppa:

https://launchpad.net/%7Eosgeolive/+archive/ubuntu/nightly/+sourcepub/6542090/+listing-archive-extra

Input from Bas regarding which to use:
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/ticket/1701#comment:1
Feel free to add your suggestions. 

2. https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/blob/master/bin/install_osm.sh

Here we need at least to make sure we update the featured city to be
Bonn. More suggestions/comments/pull requests are welcome :)

3. https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/blob/master/bin/load_postgis.sh#L96

Here we import data to PostGIS since they have already been downloaded
from install_osm.sh. 

Hope the above help. 

Best,
Angelos
