For some reason my mail was bouncing from ica-osgeo list so resending it. Suchith
From: Anand Suchith Sent: 29 July 2014 10:02 To: ica-osgeo-l...@lists.osgeo.org; live-demo@lists.osgeo.org Subject: RE: [Live-demo] [Ica-osgeo-labs] OSGeo-Live in a training setting Hi Lluís, Cameron, It is an excellent idea to setup a testimony wiki page for OSGeo-Live. Also, once you setup the testimonial wiki page, others (for example Barend Köbben<http://kartoweb.itc.nl/kobben/> ran successful workshops using OSGeo Live USB http://kartoweb.itc.nl/kobben/SOMAP-OSGEO-workshop/ ) can also contribute and it will become a good source for those who are new to get a quick understanding. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Lluís and all Girona colleagues for their excellent Open GIS summer school initiative which is now in its successful fifth year. It not only helped train a new generation of students in Open geo technologies but has also helped inspire staff in other universities to follow up on this idea . We now have universities in China, India and other countries now wishing to replicate this model which is the best proof of its real impact. Suchith From: live-demo-boun...@lists.osgeo.org<mailto:live-demo-boun...@lists.osgeo.org> [mailto:live-demo-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Cameron Shorter Sent: 29 July 2014 09:30 To: Lluís Vicens; ica-osgeo-l...@lists.osgeo.org<mailto:ica-osgeo-l...@lists.osgeo.org>; live-demo@lists.osgeo.org<mailto:live-demo@lists.osgeo.org> Subject: Re: [Live-demo] [Ica-osgeo-labs] OSGeo-Live in a training setting Thanks Lluis, your description is very comprehensive, and a valuable, unbiased summary of OSGeo-Live's strengths and weaknesses in a teaching environment. I expect this summary will be something that others will want to reference in future, and as such, I would like to copy it into a public location. I'm thinking that we should either set up a testimony wiki page, or include testimonies in our existing history page. (I'm currently erring toward adding this testimony into the history page). Does this make sense?
