Debian Edu Wheezy

Wheezy is frozen and maybe we can just do a status quo release of Debian Edu Wheezy now?!

Status of netinst testing CD

Logs are availble at: http://layer-acht.org/debian-edu-wheezy/

  • selecting profile standalone results in an error free install, but the education-standalone package is not installed (nor any other education* package

* same with workstation profile

  • grub logo is the new Joy theme logo. we should try to get Joy+edu theme.
  • apt-get update fetches translation updates for several languages despite I just want german

Ideas

Mostly stuff for Jessie (the release after Wheezy)

  • make it easier to use another, already existing, directory server, be it LDAP or AD.
  • make it easier to use a different IP network (done for Squeeze already)

  • no mandatory login (into KDE) as root (done for Squeeze already)

  • Include FAI to easily install customized machines (Skolelinux RLP and Musterösung BW use Images (why?), can we do something comparable with FAI?
  • Make the installer more flexible. Make it possible to choose KDE/GNOME/all educational packages/Debian default. (Waiting several hours installing Tjener+LTSP seems to scare away testers and developers).
  • Continue cleanup. What is left back in our d-e-packages that's not needed anymore? Strip down things to the necessary, we are not able to maintain more. What can and should be addressed in Debian?
  • Preconfigured LXDE by default as Thin-Client?
  • Preconfigured educational desktop (if chosen in the installer).
