Angelos, all,
I concerned about how much new material we are attempting add related to
Jupyter notebooks, all at the last moment.
With OSGeo-Live, we have built our reputation around quality and
stability, and I think we should be careful not to compromise that. We
will attract more users to Jupyter notebooks if they try one excellent
notebook, and look elsewhere for more, than if they try 10 notebooks
which almost work.
So before adding a new Notebook, I suggest that it should be tested
start to finish, and then thoroughly reviewed by the author, and then
at least one other person, preferably 2.
Am I right in understanding that we are currently proposing to add ~ 30
new notebooks? I'd be inclined to pick out 2 to 5 of these and focus on
getting just these working.
(The remainder can be included on OSGeo-Live for testing and workshops,
just ensure that you can only find it if provided with the correct URL)
That said, who do we have available to help test notebooks? If you can
help out, please reply to this email, volunteering your services.

2. Jupyter Notebooks: We currently have a git repository with
notebooks to include in the final release and we also have an open
pull request to merge the work from GSoC 2015 [5].
There is a special nightly build [6][7] including the GSoC notebooks.
We need to evaluate all our notebooks for this release and make a
decision on the notebooks to be included.
Perhaps we need a team of volunteers to go through all notebooks and
review them? Perhaps we need a spreadsheet listing all notebooks and
their status? Thoughts?
