| 5 | In line with the OSGeo-Live reboot [1] we have identified the following actions: |
| 6 | |
| 7 | We will only support a 64 bit distribution, (32 bit will be built but not tested or officially supported). |
| 8 | |
| 9 | We will no longer provide: |
| 10 | * Windows installers, |
| 11 | * Write ups for OGC Standards, |
| 12 | * Write ups for libraries without a user interface (on a case-by-case basis) |
| 13 | |
| 14 | 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 :) |
| 15 | * openlayers |
| 16 | * osgearth |
| 17 | * gmt |
| 18 | * iris |
| 19 | * jupyter |
| 20 | * JOSM ( [http://www.openstreetmap.org/about OpenStreetMap] editor ) |
| 21 | * proj4 |
| 22 | * mb-system |
| 23 | * zygrib |
| 24 | |
| 25 | Projects recommended to be retired from OSGeo-Live: |
| 26 | * geokettle |
| 27 | * geomajas |
| 28 | * javaworldwind |
| 29 | * kosmo |
| 30 | * mapnik |
| 31 | * pywps (quickstart broken) |
| 32 | * sahana |
| 33 | * tinyows |
| 34 | * ushahidi |
| 35 | * viking |
| 36 | |
| 37 | Remaining projects: |
| 38 | * Most projects have at least minor tweaks required for the docs, some have outright errors. |
| 39 | * 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. |
| 40 | * Once verified, we will add the project back into the OSGeo-Live 11.0 builds. |
| 41 | * We will call on all projects to test their projects and quickstarts again in an OSGeo-Live 11.0 beta. |
