What applications and versions should be included on OSGeo-Live 11.0?
9 May 2017
We are asking all OSGeo-Live projects to let us know: # What versions of projects should be on OSGeo-Live? # Are there any new projects which should be on OSGeo-Live? # Are there any projects which should be dropped from OSGeo-Live?
As per last announcement [1], with our next OSGeo-LIve release we intend to focus on quality, and as such will be asking each project: # To help install the latest stable version of the software. # To verify Project Overview and Quickstarts are both up to date and in line with our documentation standards.
You can see results of our first pass review in our status spreadsheet [2], column T "11.0 comment", and column U "10.0 Doc Review".
