This sounds pretty much like an education spin, doesn't it? If you're interested, some folks (including me) have been working within the EDU SIG at Fedora on such a thing: [1] It's based on XFCE, but includes nevertheless the (imo very amazing set of) KDE education apps and also some other related software. There's still Sugar missing - for now. I'm wondering, how a collaboration would be useful and whether this couldn't be profitable for both projects... ;) --Sebastian [1] http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Education_Spin > On Sat, Jan 31, 2009 at 4:56 PM, Simon Schampijer <si...@schampijer.de> wrote: >> David Van Assche wrote: >>> You can easily make gdm the session manager from which to choose sugar >>> or gnome, and thereby give them access to gimp, inkscape and whatever >>> other apps... >> Sure - I understnad the technical part.
