I was quite unaware of this list.
Anyway...
Document Freedom Day is on 25th March.
~300+ teams all over world will be participating. I proposed a custom
Fedora spin for the day (for all teams)
in the DF-day mailing list and some people have shown interest.
Basically it should include
1. Mainly destop oriented packages (updated stable Fedora10)
2. All Open Office stuff with good collection of templates, Dictonaries
3. Scribus, GIMP, Koffice, Gnumeric, Docbook, Lua, Quanta etc (latest stable)
4. TexLive and IDEs
5. Lots of Advocacy related documentation + Whitepapers, Technical =
A Folder + html page
reports, Tutorials etc (for DF-Day): = A Folder + html page
It may be a matter of adding a Folder + html page + some custom
artwork (from DF-Day people) + wallpaper(s) (from DF-Day people) + a
few small customisations to an existing custom spin.
(This year the document freedom day people announced the day in the
last week of Feb and so I could not come with this earlier. The whole
spin creation process seems to be a long one.)
Please suggest a suitable spin and ...how should I proceed?
Any spin should work;
https://fedorahosted.org/spin-kickstarts/browser/
has a full list of available spins. You might want to start looking at
the fedora-livecd-desktop.ks, or fedora-livecd-kde.ks
Get one of these kickstarts and add the packages you like. Then see what
the size of the spin is like because with the features you listed I
think it's most likely going to end up being a DVD spin.
Kind regards,
