I don't know. You could ask SEUL/edu and then come back and see if whatever they recommend is in Debian. If it isn't, file a wishlist bug and we'll try to find someone to package it. Please see our home page at http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-jr where you will find a link to the SEUL/edu project. > Is the Debian Junior project a separate > distribution of Debian GNU/Linux altogether or is it an installation > option of the Debain GNU/Linux? Neither at this point. But closer to the latter. It will never be a separate distribution. It is more a subset of packages within Debian and some work on many of the "glue bits" of integration that will make Debian as a whole more attractive to children. People who install Debian Jr. will likely be putting together a system for their own use and want to have "something for the kids" on it too. It has the potential to become a complete install-time option so that you can install a "kids' system" right off of a CD. But that's quite a ways off, and not really even the primary goal. There's more about this in the goals listed on the website.
