Project goals

Debian-Lex Project description

Debian-Lex is an internal project to develop Debian into an operating system that is particularly well fit for the requirements for legal offices. The goal of Debian-Lex is a complete system for all tasks in legal practice which is built completely on free software.

Debian-Lex will be based on Debian Pure Blends, which is a framework for metapackages that declare dependencies on other Debian packages, so that the complete blend will be well suited to meet the requirements of the practice of law.

We also envisage that Debian-Lex will add value to existing packages by providing customised templates for lawyers. For example, templates would be provided for OpenOffice.org, SQL-Ledger and a sample database schema for PostgreSQL.

What can I do to help?

Marketing & PR

Once we have something to show for this project, and indeed even in the formative stages of this project, we are being watched by the eyes of the world. We will necessarily want to work with press@debian.org to get the word out and to help give Debian and this project the kind of exposure we want. For this purpose we will build a collection of slides of talks about Debian-Lex.
