Re: [K12OSN] Roadmap vs FAQ?



I like the format. Suggestions for 0.0.2 follow.

1) What is K12LTSP?

  K12 = Kindergarten thru High School in the US education system
  LTSP = the Linux Terminal Server Project (www.ltsp.org)

K12LTSP is an implementation of LTSP that is geared towards education.

Suggestion: K12LTSP is an implementation of LTSP packaged in a Linux distribution which is geared towards education.


4) Which Linux distribution is K12LTSP built on-top of?

Historically, K12LTSP was built on-top of Red Hat Linux (RHL). As of
the end of April, RHL will no longer be supported by Red Hat. RHL has
been split into two tracks: Fedora (free, fast moving, exciting) and
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL, subscription, slow moving, stable).


For future unambiguous meaning: ...April 2004, RHL...


5) Will K12LTSP packages be made available for other distributions?


Not at the moment. If you want to duplicate this work on-top of Debian or Gentoo or Mandrake or whatever, we'll be happy to show
you the magic behind the curtain. But there is only so many hours
in the day, so the K12LTSP packagers will not being doing this work
themselves.


Grammar: ...But there _are_ only so many... will not _be_ doing this work themselves.

New q to probably go after 5 and before the current 6:
5b) How are errata and updates made available?
