Thanks Johan for forwarding on.

Tais, that sounds like a really useful script. In order to make it 
easier for OSGeoLive people to find the script, it would be a great to 
see it maintained in the OSGeoLive repository.

Angelos has suggested:

19:54:46 	kalxas: 	we have a tools folder in bin
19:55:19 	kalxas: 	https://github.com/OSGeo/OSGeoLive/tree/master/bin/tools

Would you be interested in maintaining the script here?

If so, I suggest joining our OSGeoLive email list (details should be at 
bottom of this email), creating a pull request, then discussing with us.

Warm regards, thankyou, and welcome.

Cameron
