[Live-demo] Using OSGeo hosting platform for developingArramagong/LiveDVD/GISVM

[Bob Basques]

All,

I've watched this progress leading up to the Sydney event from the
sidelines.  I have a question about the final intent of the product
though.  Is this intended as a learning tool, a production
implementation of a stack or ???

I think this question needs to have some clarification put to it,
especially with regard to naming.  Also, there might be more than one
final version of things depending on use, so some sort of naming
convention  might be useful as well.

Also, I've become interested my self with building USB based systems
that work similarly, and seem to span OSs a little easier.  At least
based on the traffic I saw in the list leading up to Sydney.   On USB
for many OS's.  I'm also pondering if there might be a method that allow
for mixing the two, VM and USB(native OS based)

I have many business interests related to this, most recently emergency
management, but port data stores are also of interest as well as syncing
of datastores, as in collecting offline and syncing when network
available.

Just thought I would chime in here on these point.  I have a few other
too.

Hi,


This question has crossed my mind quite a bit and I think we should come
up with an answer together:


“How to continue
using OSGeo hosting platform for developing Arramagong/LiveDVD/GISVM
project?”
 
There are
many distinct tools and references on the internet for this project:
 
a)       Several
Wiki pages: 
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/GISVM_Build
http://wiki.osgeo.org/wiki/Live_GIS_Disc_Packages
 
b)       Svn
trunk: 
https://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd/gisvm/
 
c)       Trac
platform
https://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/browser/livedvd/gisvm
 
d)       Download
site:
http://download.osgeo.org/livedvd/index.html
 
e)       Live-Demo
mailing list
http://lists.osgeo.org/pipermail/live-demo/
 
f)         Arramagong
site
http://www.arramagong.com
 
g)       GISVM
site
http://gisvm.com
 
 
So, how can
we organize it on a simple structure for simplicity and integration of
all
these?
 
I
understand that this is the result from joining several projects and
products.
But there are now too many names involved on this initiative. This
doesn’t help
the clarification for user and developer understanding.. Even I get
confused
about this and explaining it is even harder!
 
My opinion
is that we should start to agree on defining “one unique name” for the
process
of building the install script repository and the resulting Virtual
Machine
development build. Then there
could be several names for resulting products like: Arramagong, LiveDVD,
GISVM,
etc.
 
But this is
only a start-up suggestion, and I would appreciate others thoughts about
this… 
 
Thank you,
Ricardo
