@becha @jmaris @notjustbikes A lot of hopeful things are happening now, like @nextcloud :nextcloud: #OpenDesk, @cryptpad, @framasoft, @moodle, #DebianEdu :debian:, the #fediverse :fediverse: and #matrix :matrix:.
But it is very important that the focus is on #opensource :opensource: and #openstandards , if the momentum now goes to a proprietary EU-hyperscaler 🦄 we're no better of than now. (and probably #GAFAM will buy it)
#Call4Testing #DebianEdu 12. ISO Images are at http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/release/current/amd64/iso-bd/. In VMs with internal/virtual Edu network: setup a gateway VM (no DHCP service) at 10.0.0.1, install the Debian Edu mainserver from the ISO image on another VM and then boot a 3rd VM via PXE and install your first workstation. Happy testing! https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/BeforeGettingStarted https://jenkins.debian.net/userContent/debian-edu-doc/debian-edu-doc-en/debian-edu-bookworm-manual.pdf
#DebianEdu 12 release will be postponed until Debian 12.5 point release. Several issues have been found in the installer, so we take another QA turn before announcing the initial Debian Edu 12 release... So, stay tuned for some more time...
The #DebianEdu team will send out a #call4testing of Debian Edu 12 once #Debian 12.3 installer images have been released. Please stay tuned and dig out your testing hardware the coming days...
The #DebianEdu team plans to bring DebIan Edu 12 to the world with nex Debian 12.3 point release. We are nearly there...
quisiera montar debian edu en el salón de computadores de un colegio, pero creo que lidiar con arquitectura de redes me confunde :(
alguien que me lea ha implementado algo similar?
@smallcircles @webmink@the.webm.ink @webmink@meshed.cloud We would rather replace #ChromeOS with a proper linux distro, like #DebianEdu. We should stop teaching and normalising the use of #SurveillanceTechnology, especially in #school .

Kies een échte oplossing, vervang ChromeOS voor DebianEdu!
Zo voorkom je een grote berg ewaste en de hardware kan nog jaren mee.

Gibt es bei #debianedu eigentlich die Möglichkeit, #windows Applikationen zu starten? Bei uns gibt es viel #windowsonly #Branchensoftware ohne die es wohl nicht geht.
@timbecker #X2Go, #Debian, #DebianEdu, #AyatanaIndicators, #UbuntuTouch, #UbuntuMATE, #MATE, #ArcticaGreeter, #NX-Libs, #AlekSIS, and various others.
Finally, people can start testing the FAI based #DebianEdu installation: The package #debian-edu-fai has landed in #Debian unstable (and can be used to deploy Debian Edu stable and testing workstations).
The open bidding process for a municipality wide FLOSS IT solution for the schools in the city of #Magdeburg, Germany, has been retracted for now. The tender documents need to be reworked was the reason given and a follow-up open bidding will be placed soon. #FreieSoftwareGmbH (and #DebianEdu) will definitely take part in the next bidding round.
