OSGeoLive starting build cycle for OSGeoLive 15.0
- March 2022
Are you interested in joining our Open Source GIS experience? The build cycle for the next OSGeoLive release 15.0, is going to start. Version 15.0 will use Lubuntu 22.4 [1] The final version is planned to be ready in August 2022. Have a look at our schedule for the detailed steps [2].
Till then we have many challenges - from simple to challenging, to help describe and train people in the value of Open Source GIS.
For this release, we hope to help OSGeo Community projects join OSGeoLive, and work out how we can keep within our size constraints.
You are welcome to join our team!
Are you a programmer or packager with experience in one of the Open Source GIS applications? Are you a technical writer interested in making FOSS4G accessible to all? Are you interested in helping update translations to latest documents on Transifex [3] [4]?
