Hi Set, the Ubuntu One/Launchpad Account is not all you need to edit the Help Wiki, you additionally need to register to a group. It's explained by https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide#Contributing . >To allow your students to feedback and report bugs, they will also need >a launchpad account. I doubt that artists should subscribe to launchpad, they even might not have root privileges and perhaps want to use the computer and not report bugs. Artist should join the user communities. Most computer users nowadays are used to forums, but it doesn't take long to prefer mailing lists over forums. Actually subscribing to https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-users is all they need to do. However, it's not required, but could be useful to join additional mailing lists. Regarding general requests about Ubuntu user space https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-users Regarding general request about the default Ubuntu Studio desktop environment https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/xubuntu-users Regarding general support for Linux audio http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user Most important software projects provide their project specific mailing list. Sometimes the development lists are for users too, e.g. for Qtractor. Ubuntu provides a list "between" the Ubuntu developer and user lists, the development discuss list. This list might not be from interest for students, but likely for the original poster https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss >trying to make it fun for the tech-team It could be fun, but not necessarily is fun for computer experts. It's better to point this out, to avoid unpleasant surprises. You should assume that staff of tech-teams is used to work with Linux distros, BSD and similar unixoid operating systems, but they are not necessarily used to the Ubuntu attitude, e.g. the unusual usage of the bug tracker. Anyway, one argument to reduce concerns of tech-teams and school administration is to point out hat Ubuntu (Studio) provides "Long Term Support" releases, https://wiki.ubuntu.com/LTS .
