Status of the Edu-CD

<a_ochs> Lars has decide the openSUSE-Edu-CD is Version 1.0 for all Distros <a_ochs> Lars wants to let you know that he is sorry not to be here, but he attends another meeting today <kkirill> when he is planning to crete Edu-CD 1.0? <a_ochs> on server side are some packages updated to <kkirill> His packages is very good execuse for missing :) <a_ochs> I think the GM for the 10.2 are in the next tow weeks <a_ochs> two <kkirill> I have looked at patterns, there are just few words to translate to Russian <a_ochs> for the 10.3 6-8 weeks later <a_ochs> ok, the pattern not not up to date <kkirill> Is there any way to add translated description to see them in package manager before install? <kkirill> *description for each package <a_ochs> I hope it, but cannot say exactly <a_ochs> under the download file, on the homepage is a new folder <kkirill> I suppose in German version of Edu-CD all packages have English description <a_ochs> I think on my PC have German description <kkirill> In package manager, before you install them, but just observing? <a_ochs> let's get briefly back to the new folder <a_ochs> his name is /test <kkirill> ok, good folder <a_ochs> in next time in this folder are the new Version of the pakages <a_ochs> packages <a_ochs> in download/repo the stabil Version und in download/test the newest Version untestet <kkirill> it is clear :) <kkirill> but I have no more any openSUSE 10.2 versions installed, already upgraded <kkirill> btw, what is download/repos folder? <a_ochs> you can take the repo in Yast directly <kkirill> there are download/repo and download/repoS folders, is there any difference? <a_ochs> repos are the old Version <a_ochs> or test-Version <kkirill> I just compared them, and I suppose it is just symlink <kkirill> but for now, if we have no stable version yet, there is no sense IMHO to provide test folder, as stable equals test for now <a_ochs> Yes we are beta and not stable <a_ochs> for Yast you can look on this page: http://en.opensuse.org/Education_repositories <kkirill> It is unable to correctly display this page in Firefox, have you same problems? <a_ochs> no, its look like ok <kkirill> Good news, that IE fails to display it too :)

Packaging questions

<a_ochs> let's get briefly back to to the pattern. some pattern are in German and same in English. I think is a german Version available i can see it in German otherwise in english <kkirill> patterns yes, but not individual package description <a_ochs> individual package description too <a_ochs> its the same <a_ochs> blufish-doc is in English and dia in German <a_ochs> do you have any further questions? <kkirill> therfore, patterns include not only translated categories but all package descriptions? <a_ochs> no, the package descriptions are in the packages <kkirill> How do you thinks, should Repositaries entry be in the Project overview table on Education Applications line of main page <a_ochs> We have an overview on the Wiki <kkirill> yes, but just a direct link to Repositaries from main page <kkirill> Project overview table has one empty, we can fill it <kkirill> *empty cell <a_ochs> I can't see it. <a_ochs> besides Software? <kkirill> the last cell of the table under Project overview header <kkirill> IMHO, it is a good plase for Repositaries hyperlink <a_ochs> ok, i think it too. <a_ochs> The link in the News is placed too far far down the page <kkirill> and IMHO build service repos should be mentioned also <a_ochs> No, thing for developers is the build service repos in the wiki the right place <kkirill> and for testers too <a_ochs> ok <kkirill> I have much text to translate and not good langluage knowledge to help this, I will try to do my best <kkirill> I spend 2 hours for every small wiki page <a_ochs> I think you take a nice Job. <a_ochs> Thank you verry much <kkirill> you too <a_ochs> Thanks, but my English is to bad. I must go to school ;-) <kkirill> Hope things will be changed in near future, and many peple from Russia will be participate in it <a_ochs> yes
