NEW • Development Release: Skolelinux 3.0 RC4 |
| Daniel Hess has announced the fourth release candidate of Skolelinux 3.0, a distribution also known as Debian-Edu Etch: "This is the fourth release candidate of Debian-Edu Etch. Even though it was planned to release the final version after rc3, it was decided to release (at least) one more release candidate. The reason for this is that some critical bugs have been fixed and some new features and changes have been implemented. Highlights: fixed administration user access to LDAP; keep the /etc directory under version control; fixed students' KDE start menu and put some more icons on the desktop; changed the site summary client code to make it less likely that all clients connect to the server at the same time, to spread the load on the server...." See the release announcement for full details. Download: debian-edu...rc4.iso (4,480MB, MD5). |

| About Skolelinux |
| Skolelinux is the Debian-edu project's Custom Debian Distribution (CDD) in development. It is aiming to provide an out-of-the-box localised environment tailored for schools and universities. The out-of-the-box environment comes with 75 applications aimed at schools, as well as 15 network services pre-configured for a school environment. The simple, three-question installation requires minimal technical knowledge. Skolelinux is Debian, which means, among other things, that there are no license costs or worries, and that upgrade and maintenance of the software can be done over the Internet with the power of Debian's apt-get. The core goals of Skolelinux are localisation and ease of system administration. |
