[opensuse-edu] Status update April 2008

Hi all Parallel to the openSUSE-Education 1.0 for openSUSE 10.3 release, we are currently working on other projects. Here is the overview: The URL*http://education.opensuse.org/ has been applied for us. http://en.opensuse.org/Education will be reachable at the above URL in a few days. * http://www.opensuse-education.org/ will get a "Face lift" in a few weeks. The new Design will look more like the official openSUSE-Layout. Help is needed! Any webdesigner (we need somebody knowing YaML) around? * As far as the RC2 is concerned, there are only a few Bugs left to take care of. Hopefully they will get fixed soon. Everybody who has some wishes left, please fill them in our bugzilla at http://bugs.opensuse-education.org/ At the moment the automatic package selection during first installation is deactivated. This is the result of a newer package "bc" on the Education media. A bug in the 10.3 installer doesn't find the right solution and so no pattern (and no package) is preselected. The online repository is already fixed - in the final media all packets will be selected automatically, too. (see bug #0000029) * The patterns will see some rework prior to release but they already demonstrate functionality in their current form. * Lars has talks with Wolf-Dieter Zimmermann about his “Seminarix” to provide Seminarix on openSUSE. * There are new packets in the Buildservice Repository: + Score Reading Trainer + ksociograma + gbrainy As a result of a short talk in IRC (thanks to kkirill!), packagers adding new packages to the obs repository should also start a new wiki page. We've created a template here: http://en.opensuse.org/Education/Wiki#Template_for_Application_descriptions * The work on the Wiki is moving ahead as well. We have updated http://en.opensuse.org/Education/Applications/Desktop. It now contains all currently available applications. Additionally we want to use "Categories" to assign applications to a group automatically. Feel free to make suggestions! Currently you can find all applications with their descriptions in the Category: Education Applications => http://en.opensuse.org/Category:Education_Applications We can provide more than one Category for each application. So an application can be in "Category:Education Applications" and also in "Category:Music" and/or "Category:Artistic scope"...
