If you guys are working on livecd for education you should talk to Conrad Newton, he's the one doing the skoleknoppix CD (more or less a livecd version of the skolelinux workstation profile) > So how can I contribute? > I wont be able to make packages etc..

Anything else? - - you could help to make skolelinux available in your local languages, the procedure for adding a new language is detailed on http://i18n.skolelinux.no/new-language.html, not counting documentation this takes a couple of hours at most. - - help with documentation by: - helping the german team with the requirements specifacation by asking local teachers what they want/expect from a school network. - translating existing documentation to local languages - writing new documentation (e.g. howtos about how to use certain applications for teaching) - - test new release when they come out and report bugs ... In short there's plenty to do for non-packagers and non-coders - -- Bart Cornelis (aka cobaco): Co�rdinator Belgisch Skolelinux team Co�rdinator Nederlandse Skolelinux vertaling Skolelinux Belgi�- http://i18n.skolelinux.no/belgium -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFARIWM5ihPJ4ZiSrsRAh/7AJ0b1v7zlEjvMv2UvkYjRObeCoJtzQCeP3tA qBXZ86RJcdjtx9l2Ia98U0k= =S8lP -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
