For some reason my mail was bouncing from ica-osgeo list so resending it.

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.

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?
