Hi Andrea


Education:Desktop and Education:server repositories has been merged in
main Education repository. The packages not yet moved have problems. So
you are Warn : DO NOT USE THEM.

Ah! Thanks for clarifying!


5) isv:hp:education
The description of this project sounds very interesting to me:
"HP and Novell have joined forces to create the most compelling open source
desktop solution for Schools. From the tremendous work of the openSUSE
Education
community, HP and Novell are looking to leverage the openSUSE Build Service
to
create a central place where educators and students alike will be able to
find
all the greatest open source software for Education."

Currently I miss the announcement of this cooperation on the Novell or HP
side.
Can someone please point me to such an official press announcement?
Does this mean, packages in this repository will be official maintained?
But I'm a bit confused as I just see one maintainer of the Education
project
being part of the isv:hp:education project - and most of the project-members
in
isv:hp:education are from Novell or HP. But many packages in the
HP-Repository
are just symlinks to the Education or other projects. Is this intended? Why?


Any new here?
For me this sounds like Novell and HP start their own Education project -
without working together with the community...

With kind regards,
Thorsten
