Hi James, @ll

This is the result of some sleepless nights (currently 140 source packages in Education:desktop and Education:server).
But I've created an online repository, so you can use the URL below to add the Education-Repository to your installation sources:
http://www.opensuse-education.org/download/Beta1/
Just a short ls -lrSh in the rpms directory shows some packages with over 10MB:
10M pysycache-lang-pt-3.0-9.7.noarch.rpm
10M kde4-marble-3.92.0.svn700953-2.1.i586.rpm
11M grass-6.2.2-17.1.i586.rpm
11M maxima-5.12.0-3.12.i586.rpm
11M XaraLX-devel-0.7r1777-9.1.i586.rpm
12M python-wxGTK26-2.6.3.3-44.1.i586.rpm
12M hydrogen-0.9.3-79.1.i586.rpm
15M pysycache-photographies-3.0-3.6.noarch.rpm
16M celestia-1.4.1-7.5.i586.rpm
17M clisp-2.41-2.9.i586.rpm
18M scilab-4.1.1-59.4.i586.rpm
28M qcad-2.0.5.0-53.13.i586.rpm
29M kdeedu3-3.5.7-33.2.i586.rpm
29M muse-0.8.1-3.1.i586.rpm
31M pysycache-3.0.1-17.2.i586.rpm
31M stellarium-0.9.0-10.13.i586.rpm
44M gcompris-8.3.2-24.6.i586.rpm
170M XaraLX-0.7r1777-9.1.i586.rpm
Perhaps now it's a good time to test _all_ applications and decide if they should stay on the CD or just reside in the repository.
The german Education team has already started to test some applications. I think we can clone their wiki page:
http://de.opensuse.org/Bildungswesen_Desktopprogramme
into the english wiki.
The page is splitted into two parts: one for young children (up to 12 years) and one for older ones.
For each part, there are some categories like "computing", "languages", "mathematics", "natural sciences", "art".... (try to place a application into one or more of these categories - you can create a new one if none fits your application, but this should not be necessary).
The table titles are:
* Pakagename (with link to a detailed description) - links to en.wikipedia.org pages, if possible
* Description - short description of the application
* Homepage - the original homepage of the project
* Note - links to other websites who have good articles about this application
Greetings,
Lars

How are you? How is the Baby?

I'm wondering about the 905 mb size of the new disk. Is it programs or
dependencies pushing us into dvd size? I'm not in the poorest school
district that I know of, but even my IBM servers still all use cd's.
