Squeegee

From openSUSE

This Project has been created by members of the openSUSE community. The intention is to add specific packages and features that pertain specifically to Internet Content Filtering. The project is initially focused on the household audience, but envisions the possibility of appliance implementations in the future.

Vision

The project is in its early stages of planning and organizing the team. Development talent is welcome! We are focused on solving the content filtering problem using SQUID and DansGuardian for household users of openSUSE. Many of us are parents, uncles, and aunts who have our families running openSUSE, but who lack a good content filtering solution. Some team members also have extensive enterprise-level experience implementing content filtering solutions, so development will have that audience in mind, too.

Visit Squeegee/Ideas to see the features and advantages we intend to drive, and to add your own ideas to the project for consideration.
