[talk-ph] Portable USB for OSM editing

[maning sambale]

Dear everyone,

We created a portable USB flashdisk pre-installed with applications
needed for OSM editing.
The plan is to give out these sticks during our training/workshops and
it should work "out-of-the-stick" without going through installing
everything on each machines.

The advantage of this approach over using LiveCDs/VirtualBox is that
they can "easily" bring along the stick anywhere say an internet cafe
and continue editing.

So far, we were able to run JOSM using the JPortable Launcher.  A
shortcut would be nice which we plan to work on later.

In our test, everything works OK (tested on XP, Win7 32 and 64bits).
QGIS seems to be the more difficult to install (will try that later).

Please give it a run and send us feedback/bugs.

If there are other aplications you think we should add, let me know.
