I would think a jr-edu-admin meta package or some such (or maybe if a debian-edu group is started, separate from debian-jr, simply edu-admin). > For freeduc we have builded packages with menu entries created > in the Gnome desktop. I'm not sure how this is handle in the Debian > distribution, is there a menu entry for all X-window applications in Debian? The menu system breaks things up finer than that. Dividing applications into "X" and "console" is a very arbitrary division. Instead, the Debian menu system attempts to divide things into more meaningful categories. For details, see the menu policy in this package: http://packages.debian.org/debian-policy > What we were thinking is that at minumum each application we package > should have a menu entry in an education menu category. Is it compatible > with what is doing debian-jr? Yes, I think that makes sense. We are discussing whether Debian needs an "education" section in menu policy on the debian-devel list. Please feel free to jump into the discussion. The thread in debian-devel starts here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-0012/msg01328.html > Also is there dedicated education categories in deb package? Not yet. See above.
