= What's in the OSGeo-Live 11.0 reboot? = 29 May 2017 In line with the OSGeo-Live reboot [1] we have identified the following actions: We will only support a 64 bit distribution, (32 bit will be built but not tested or officially supported). We will no longer provide: * Windows installers, * Write ups for OGC Standards, * Write ups for libraries without a user interface (on a case-by-case basis) Stray projects: We haven't got a point of contact for these projects. If you know something about this project, and can help review docs, then please consider adopting the project. Without a volunteer, we will need to consider retiring them from OSGeo-Live. Work commitment is low, kudos and karma very high :) * openlayers * osgearth * gmt * iris * jupyter * JOSM ( [http://www.openstreetmap.org/about OpenStreetMap] editor ) * proj4 * mb-system * zygrib Projects recommended to be retired from OSGeo-Live: * geokettle * geomajas * javaworldwind * kosmo * mapnik * pywps (quickstart broken) * sahana * tinyows * ushahidi * viking Remaining projects: * Most projects have at least minor tweaks required for the docs, some have outright errors. * We are asking each project to, check their project overview, run the application on an OSGeo-Live VM (10.5 or a recent nightly build), run every step of the quickstart, update if required, and tell us when done. * Once verified, we will add the project back into the OSGeo-Live 11.0 builds. * We will call on all projects to test their projects and quickstarts again in an OSGeo-Live 11.0 beta. For specific project comments, see the OSGeo-Live status spreadsheet, column T "11.0 Comment", and column U "10.5 Doc Review".
