The method I think would be a breakthrough for a school is to use a thin
client environment. One server is enough to run a typical school, you
only need to manage one standard GNU/Linux computer, the clients need
no software or configuration, and they can keep whatever they already
have in their hard drives untouched and usable. Also all the students
data are in an easy to backup spot, installing an activity in the server
makes it available for everyone instantly, and you can also combine it
with class management software like iTALC.
This sounds useful.
(For reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thin_client )
So, if an enthusiastic volunteer had demonstrated Sugar on a Stick to a
school's "IT person" who has no previous sugar or linux experience -
what would need to be on their learning curve, to set up such a system?
From the link in Projects/Toast on sugarlabs wiki:
https://trisquel.info/en/wiki/configure-ltsp-server
Sounds possible.
Also ask quidam on #trisquel?
