In Debian it's not a joke. GRASS 7 is still in experimental because it breaks the QGIS plugin. There was strong user demand to not break the QGIS GRASS plugin that convinced me to not move it out of experimental before the QGIS issue is fixed. I was a bit disappointed that it required monetary incentive to update the QGIS GRASS plugin via the crowdfunding campain. An unfortuntate consequence of the user base not possessing the skills to contribute the GRASS 7 changes I guess. >> or increasing QGIS to 2.10 on our next OSGeo-Live 9.0. >> >> Any comments on the viability of moving QGIS to 2.10 on OSGeo-Live? > > Cameron: > I don't think that the integration interface of QGIS (younger) with > GRASS (32 years old now, co-founder of OSGeo) can dicate that > OSGeo-Live be going back to GRASS GIS 6. OSGeo-Live's role as a showcase of the best of breed open source geospatial applications is a good reason to not be as conservative as Debian and update QGIS to 2.10 along with GRASS 7.0.1.
