[Live-demo] MOTION: Pull request #134 Workshop installers

[Astrid Emde]

Hi,

I use the link often for my workshops
http://trac.osgeo.org/osgeo/wiki/Live_GIS_Workshop_Install

+1 But it makes sense to provide this extra folder.

I agree that we have to check whether the scripts are still maintained.
Maybe we have to define a contact person and email in the scripts.
