[Live-demo] [Board] OSGeo-Live as an official OSGeo project

[Johan Van de Wauw]

I'm in favor of having OSGeo live as an OSGeo project.

Especially I think we need a way to decide on proposals of changing
some of the things we do (eg add quickstarts for libraries of move to
git). Now these discussion usually end undecided.
