First: congrats to all.
Second: User-friendliness bug:
The release notes say "Please see the instructions (SoaS, Fedora,
Ubuntu, Debian, etc.) of choice to upgrade to this release."
No link to instructions provided in either e-mail or wiki version.
Searching the wiki turned up "Supported Systems"
Bert,
Thanks so much for sharing this with us.
I am working with 5th grade teachers and students and have been waiting for
something like this.
YIPEE!
Gerald

1. While the decision panel debates [See
http://lists.sugarlabs.org/archive/iaep/2009-September/008746.html]

Hi Bastien,
A good way to measure the skills needed in this rapidly changing world
is to look into Information Literacy
Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_literacy )
references the American Library Association's description which is
fairly good
