[ZOO-PSC] ZOO LiveDVD

Hi all

I think we should rip our own LiveDVD including ZOO packages, and part of
the OSGeo stack.
I think including ZOO Kernel, MapServer and OpenLayers makes sense, as
people can setup WPS and WMS server + client application, using those three
only.

Including GRASS could also be a good idea, as Soeren already made some
integration tests (will not be use in WS)

We must have such a material for our Workshop, and for distributing during
FOSS4G of course.

We could also think of a jacket with ZOO, OSGeo and OGC logo only.

Discs and jacket will include small costs, and we'd better think of it very
soon
(may be from ZOO sponsors ?)

Please tell me what you think

Have a good weekend all

Nick
