Does anyone use / can recommend an Open Source Timetabler?
Same goes for report writing system
Kind regards

I can recommend the use of 'plan', oddly enough available on SuSE's CD/DVD set.

RE: [suse-linux-uk-schools] Timetables and all that stuff>SchoolTool are looking for test sites to get real world feedback - any volunteers, let me know... I'd be keen, but getting our bursar to agree may be problematic! But I'll ask - bear in mind that we are looking for admissions/pre admissions control, billing (private school so quite complex) effectively we would want to replace the capita system without going down the .NET route. Shame really, because it's stable now! :-)
What sort of timetabling functionality were you looking for? To replace the SIMs Timtabler with the functionality of V6 e.g. also to handle resources and to be able to draw pupil (staff?) data from the core database without the export/import cycle.
Is anyone offering suport - this IS important if we were to try it out. Adrian
