[CentOS-docs] CentOS EDU Introduction

2017-07-11 Thread Markus McLaughlin
Karanbir Singh and I started a SIG called "CentOS EDU."  It is CentOS 
designed for the Education Community.


It is CentOS with offline Wikipedia access and a library of free 
e-textbooks.  Windows and MACs have dominated

Education for years, it's time to "fight back" with CentOS!!!

We welcome anyone who would love to join us on this journey to make this 
a reality!  :D

Fedora 26 is now available, what can CentOS EDU learn from it?

If there is a subject that belongs on another list, please direct me to 
that...

[CentOS-docs] Fedora 26 and The Impact On CentOS EDU

2017-07-10 Thread Markus McLaughlin
Hello Everyone, Fedora 26 will be available tomorrow.  What features 
from it can be used in CentOS EDU?


I dabble with Fedora, it offers the very latest technology, and inspires 
other distributions to follow them

including CentOS.

I want to know how CentOS EDU can incorporate parts of F26 to make it 
more robust?


Is it my understanding that RHEL/CentOS 8 will be based on Fedora 27/28?

Now that the CentOS EDU Wiki Page is posted, will there be a wallpaper 
submission link so anyone can post a background created in GIMP that 
shows off colleges, schools, universities, or chalkboards, or textbooks?


Happy Fedora Day!  :D

Markus McLaughlin

[CentOS-docs] Markus McLaughlin Intro

2017-07-07 Thread Markus McLaughlin
My name is Markus McLaughlin, I am coming on board the CentOS EDUcation 
SIG Project.  I want to bring my resourcefulness and talents to this 
very ambitious project.  Debian has already made available its own EDU
distribution.  It's time for CentOS to "step up," and offer its own 
service.  Windows and MACs have dominated
the education market far too long.  It's time to bring free and open 
source software to those schools and

students who can't afford to use either of their systems.

I think there should be two forms of the CentOS EDU distribution: 1. 4GB 
"Core" with the bare essentials, including offline Wikipedia access, and 
a library of free e-textbooks for those who don't have broadband 
internet access.
2. 8GB "Everything" with additional software like Audacity, GIMP, 
Blender, Scribus, Inkscape, etc.  CentOS EDU
should provide a configuration menu of all the different interfaces, 
GNOME, KDE, etc., based on the Anaconda
installer.  It should also provide Windows compatibility so MS Office 
can be used instead of LibreOffice.


Another option that Debian EDU probably does not have is, why not have 
CentOS EDU be compatible with the
Linux layer of Windows 10?  The CORE could be accessed inside Windows 10 
so it would be a "win win."


I would like to see CentOS EDU paired with the Raspberry Pi Foundation 
as well, presenting it to those who can't afford a full PC.  The Pi 
would make an inexpensive means to support poor students.  For $100.00, 
a Pi with CentOS EDU 32gb microsd card included, would open up a whole 
new world!


Please consider my ideas!  :D

Markus McLaughlin
