[OSGeoLive] Hello from Moonshine

[Nate Harada]

Thanks Vicky,

I've gone through the links you sent. It does sound like Moonshine may not
be a great fit for your distro now that I look into it more. My primary
concerns:

   - The stability of the project, since it's fairly new and is maintained
   by a tiny team. I certainly cannot make promises about future long term
   support, etc.
   - More importantly, this line: "OSGeo-Live is targeted at applications
   that people can use rather than libraries." Moonshine is definitely a
   library right now. In the future it may become an application, but that's
   still a ways off (especially with how difficult it is to get GPUs right
   now).

I'm excited to follow your project, and hopefully our paths will cross
later!

Nate
