Hi<br>I'm agree. We could release ArcheOS at beginning of 2011 (new year - new OS...).<br>I'm testing ArcheOS alpha 1 and I think that we need to install this packages:<br>
<style type="text/css">p, li { white-space: pre-wrap; }</style>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"><br></span></p><p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">unixodbc (it is already installed)</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">unixodbc-bin</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0px; text-indent: 0px;"><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">unixodbc-dev</span></p>

Hi all,<br>
It looks like that the issue for ArcheOS 4 are no more so many (more or less 10% in the roadmap). On the other hand all the release goals seems to be OK:<br>
<br>
1 repository (OK)<br>
<br>
2 deb packages of archaeological software (OK)<br>
<br>
3 adding software of Computer Vision for SFM (Structure From Motion): Bundler, PMVS2 (OK, and in the meantime we added also CMVS)<br>
<br>
4 adding software for semi-automatic drawing of finds: stippler (OK)<br>
<br>
I am thinking that maybe we could choose a date to release ArcheOS 4 alpha. In this way we can concentrate on the final issue, release the distro and fix all the minor bug later (also looking the issue of the user/tester).<br>
E.g. new paclages can be added to the repository in a second time, new artwork can be uploaded in the wiki with the instruction for the user (how to change the wallpaper, etc...).<br>
Anyway, after a while we can release a beta with all the bugs fixed, till the final release.<br>
<br>
What do you think about it?<br><font color="#888888">
