[OSGeoLive] py3 ML 2020, was ODC OSGeo Community Project

[Angelos Tzotsos]

Hi Alex,

Did we actually made any progress in forming an application to include 
OpenDataCube in OSGeoLive?
I do not find any draft on my e-mail history.

FYI a new debian package for 1.8.7 is already available in the nightly ppa:

https://launchpad.net/%7Eosgeolive/+archive/ubuntu/nightly/+sourcepub/13674736/+listing-archive-extra

Best regards,
Angelos
