First of all, I want to thank both Massimo and Cameron for their work on these notebooks (and OSGeo live in general). They are a nice introduction to many of the tools on OSGeo live. I've started reading through some of the notebooks (and I proposed some fixes and improvements [1]).I really think it is a valuable addition to OSGeo live.
Just before his list of comments Cameron states "the initial user experience when looking at notebooks is close, but is yet to meet our OSGeo-Live presentation standards". I actually think this is a compliment given the high standards of OSGeo live documentation, created by an enormous group of people over different years. In his comments, Cameron raises some valid points, and I think that the experience can still be improved with some minor tweaks: if you get to the TOC now without knowing jupyter you are still somewhat lost. A short intro on how to use it would be great. Eg to run this block of code, press shift+enter. This being said, the few notebooks I ran (GDAL, GDAL python and OSSIM) were very nice and in their current shape a good addition to OSGeo live. I'm +1 on adding them as a project on the live DVD. For a next release, I think we can integrate more with the rest of the documentation. Exposing them now is probably the best way to get more people to contribute to them.
