current Fedora EDU state

Hi everybody, it has been quite calm, so I would like to give you a short overview of what has happened in the past in relationship to the Edu-SIG. Well, we had the last meeting some time ago, so here is the log (I think I hadn't posted it yet). http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Education/Meetings/2008-05-09 We talked about the different applications to include on a spin. The major decision was to release a math-related spin first. Currently, the most important thing is to release the spin ASAP. We have already talked about the applications we want to include. You might have a look at them on the following wiki page. If you have any further ideas, please don't hesitate to suggest them. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Education/Apps Finally, I played around with some kickstart files and figured out, that we'd be able to include all the chosen apps, as well as an KDE desktop environment. The most recent problem was, that we don't want to include the whole kdeedu package, since it includes way more than only mathematic applications. So, here is the bug request for splitting kdeedu up. https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446093 Once everything is ready and in rawhide, I might go on creating the kickstart file, so that we can submit it to the Spins SIG & Rel-Eng. All in all, since Fedora 9 is now out, I think we should hurry a little bit up. The earlier we publish a spin, the more feedback we'd be able to gather. But it's clear enough that such a spin must be still production-ready. On the other hand, we talked in the last meeting about further spins. A great idea was to create a spin, which includes the Sugar desktop environment (well known from the OLPC). Since this is also in Fedora 9, this wouldn't be such a big problem, but there are still those activities for use with Sugar missing. The last thing I wanted to mention is the LinuxTag happening at the of May in Berlin. Is there anybody attending it? Unfortunately, I'll only be there on Saturday, May 31 (the last day), since the other dates interfered with my school schedule. Those who are interested in education and who'll be there, please let me know, so that maybe, we might sit down for a cup of coffee and talk a little bit about the whole thing here... :) Kind Regards, Sebastian Dziallas

Hi all! I have updated the application-list in the wiki: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Education/Apps I would like to get some feedback: Maybe we could talk about different categories or groups, as well as software, which *should* definitely be included in a possible spin. If you have anything to add or any suggestions, please do not hesitate to add them to the wiki or to post them here. Kind Regards, Sebastian Dziallas
