Re: Today Meeting

Hi @ll

I'm sorry, but currently it looks like I couldn't attend the whole 
meeting - perhaps at the end, depending on an important previous 
meeting.

Nevertheless, here's the list of my items for 
http://en.opensuse.org/Education/Meetings/Current

== 1 Status of openSUSE-Education 1.0  ==
see below
== 2 Branding status ==
Nothing from my side. I'm interested to hear some success stories... :-)
== 3 My old action items ==
see below

2=should IMO be tested - but not included in the final release as it 
needs more work

^^ as you can see - our packagers are very hard-working to bring you the 
best packages ever. Now we have to see if everything works as 
expected - YOUR turn! ;-)

http://devzilla.novell.com/education/ is waiting for bugreports. 
Currently, we've just 2 open bugreports (one of them should be fixed 
upstream) for 11.1.

Open Questions for the Meeting:
* The list of additional package upgrades is long - should we include 
them nevertheless?
* New packages - include them, just some of them?
* Final decision what to do 

========================================================================

== 3 My old action items ==

1) Provide a list of applications for a new pattern|group "scientists". 
Initial science pattern is in SVN now. (Awaiting translation ;-)

2) Split of the Development page into pieces and move them to our 
Developer Wiki. 
Please have a look:
http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Education

3) write documentation about the openSUSE-Education Update repository 
for normal users and (School-)Admins 
Initialy done: 
http://en.opensuse.org/Education/Repositories#Update_Repositories

IMO Missing/Next ToDo: write a HowTo about mirroring the 
openSUSE-Education repositories

4) create new openSUSE-Education in the Press page
