I have become aware that Edubuntu 8.04 no longer offers a 'Live CD'. I do know that it is a simple matter to install Ubuntu and then the Edubuntu desktop etc and the add on CD now offered makes that easy too.
However, from a 'Marketing' point of view, the loss of a demonstrable item such as a Live CD is rather sad. A Live CD can be displayed as an item in its own right. It can be handed out to parents, and teachers. It has a credibility - that an organised and persistent Team is behind the 'Product'. I regularly display on a non trading basis at local computer fairs (monthly) and although it is true that most of the interest is around K/Ubuntu, there is regular comment and question about Edubuntu. Education, in UK anyway, is almost wall to wall microsoft, and I would like to remind the Edubuntu team (and others) how useful the Live CDs are for credible marketing. -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- ubuntu-marketing mailing list ubuntu-marketing@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-marketing
