New meeting? Request for ideas!
by Sebastian Dziallas
Hi all,
what do you think about a new meeting? I'm not sure, if I'll be
available this Friday, but how about having a meeting soonish?
As you may've noticed, the Education Math Spin Preview went out
(http://sdziallas.joyeurs.com/blog/2008/09/finally-releasing-an-education....),
but it has been quite calm since then. It's still not too late to come
up with feedback... ;)
I'm also working on a science spin right now - nothing more than a proof
of concept - but it's a beginning. We've already some math apps in the
other spin, but there's still the possibility to include more apps.
Since I'm not really aware of *all* the apps out there, it would really
help, if you'd come up with any suggestions (biology? chemistry?
physics? ...to be continued).

finally... releasing an Education Spin
by Sebastian Dziallas
Ladies and Gentlemen, please start your engines...
I'm happy to announce that we've another Education Spin ready for
download! It's not official, though: We've got trademark approval, but
please consider this only a preview for the upcoming F10 spins.
The Fedora 10 Education Math Spin will follow Fedora's release cycle and
will be officially endorsed by the Fedora Project.
But if you want to give it a test drive, here you go! It currently
includes only educational applications related to the field of
mathematics, but I'd be glad to hear your suggestions and ideas on what
we've done so far.
Finally, I'd like to thank Rex for all his efforts, without which this
wouldn't have been possible!
So here's the link (currently torrent only):

By the way: If you're interested in education, why don't you join our
IRC channel? It's #fedora-edu on Freenode!
