This should include (but not limit to):- *Wallpapers, Icons, themes... that would appeal to kids. *an internet or programs filter to block harmful things *games, programs related to education and fun (programs like tuxpaint, google chrome, and many games). Use Case: a parent who cares about what his kids see in the virtual world. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: this would appeal to parents because they would probably want a safe and fun environment for their kids to play with and learn from at the same time. it will create an openSUSE army for the future :). Discussion: #1: melchiaros melchiaros (melchiaros) (2011-12-11 13:40:18) With http://susestudio.com/search?q=kids you can find some prepared appliances that already focus on such task. To set up a spin(that is what you locking for) for special proposes is a thing of much work. There are some approaches like openSUSE Medical which suffer exactly on this.
