Hello Community

A lot of progress has been made since the meeting last week, here is
the status report of the project and minutes of the project meeting
yesterday.

* Lars Vogdt(co-mentor) and Jan Weber(GSOC student) were present for the meeting
* Discussion started trying to get monodevelop set up and build the application
* The very initial GUI is done for kiwi-ltsp part(openSUSE specific),
it should be fully functional by next week,
* If you have mono and vte-sharp installed, download
http://forgeftp.novell.com/kiwi-ltsp/easy-ltsp.tar.bz2,
  extract and run mono Easy-LTSP.exe in the extracted folder to give
it a try. Copy kiwi-ltsp file to /etc/sysconfig/kiwi-ltsp
* Jan will work on cleaning the GUI, getting it all in one window and
complete kiwi-ltsp part by next wednesday
* Tooltips and other aid will come as and when time permits
* Future implementation would allow non-root users to run the
application and save a configurations in home directory
* Appropriate widgets would be used, for example a dropdown list where
applicable instead of buttons
* Only a basic and necessary configuration of the services would be
handled by this GUI, for advanced configuration of other services
admins should use yast modules
* Workflow as it is in the initial application will be refined further
* Our priority would be lts.conf GUI, so we will put in full efforts
on lts.conf part(distro independent) from next week no matter what
state of kiwi-ltsp part is, remaining work can be completed as and
when time permits.
