I would second Chris's suggestion and would go further, recommending (at
least) those with a development background read the archives to date
(there's only 25 messages!) to get the technical flavour of the project.

For those who are aware of Hobarte, I'm hoping/intending that some of the
existing Hobarte solution can be migrated to this (despite language and
architecture differences). Regardless, my spare energies will be directed
into SchoolTool rather than Hobarte. This project has enormous potential and
already has a very solid direction - more people will move it towards a
useable solution that much faster.

Cheers

Chris

Subject: [suse-linux-uk-schools] Free school administration software -
project has started


Hi all,

I have read messages on this list with interest over the last few
months. A 
topic, which is of interest to me, has been raised on several occasions,

namely, the question of a free school administration software package.

A project has now been started to produce such a package. It is at the
planning 
stage and has need of volunteers to help define the requirements of the
system 
and assist with the construction of it. I am posting to this list
because I am 
convinced that the most effective way to produce a free software
application of 
this nature is to engage the education community in it's development
from the 
outset.

If you would like to become involved please visit this site:

http://schooltool.sourceforge.net

and subscribe to the mailing list.

Regards
