FOSS4G2008 PC Software

Back to FOSS4G2008...
= Introduction =
Workshop and Lab presenters were asked when they submitted their proposal to provide an indication of their software requirements for the PC's supplied at the venues. this list is a synthesis of the requirements and presnet the various options for working with non-Windows based presentations.
Presenters are asked to upload any VMWare images, other software and data to the ftp server [xyz] by the 15th September or preferably earlier. Login details will be communicated to you directly. Presentations can also be uploaded there.
The issue of doing printing of Workshop/Lab paper materials locally has been raised and will be addressed - arrangements to follow.
Discussion on this page should be done on the workshops list (conference-workshops@osgeo.org) at http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/conference-workshops

Software 	Port	Comment
MS4W's Apache 	80 	
OSGeo4W's Apache 	8080	
Tomcat 	8180	
GeoServer 	8910	Q: should this not be a .war in tomcat? therefore on 8180?
A: no, gs will be running inside of an embedded jetty, so it needs a different port
MapGuide Open Source	8008
