It does not sound to me like you agree, B�rd and Herman (and please mention who you quote, B�rd): I believe Herman suggests making an ez-edu package that _depends_ on and extends the more generic one. I agree with that approach. It sounds like B�rd _abandons_ the generic package and makes a parallel educational one from scratch. I am aware that you probably want to abandon the current ez 2.x package and instead work on a newer core, but please do not aim for Skolelinux only: It will then be less relevant for adoption in Debian. Sorry if I did not interpret you correctly. - Jonas - -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ - Enden er n�r: http://www.shibumi.org/eoti.htm -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFB8IhHn7DbMsAkQLgRAsUJAJ4uceb2UKlXc+eIDypsckGub8zoRQCfbrY0 Ns5yQeP8Rzbr2xSb0ZtZMjI= =ZPbA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
