[Ambassadors] Re: Student partnership program. Extending fedora mentor program to students.

[ankur sinha]

uhm, maybe RoboCode would be a good addition?? and even SCOURGE??  for eye candy we can always use DOOM3 etc.. plus itll be nice to tell them that WINE can handle almost all windows games..favourites such as CounterStrike and such ??

The ideas are good. We can also have a new SIG for this.
First start with school children, give them a live spin with some games

i think if someone is working on such a live spin they need to be
really careful since such a live spin will have to leave a good first
impression, lets be frank , bundled Linux games aren't really addictive
or even as good as what Windows games may be, if we are targeting
school students, I assume you are talking about student like in class X
or above, then the spin needs to bundle with it some nice programming
tools, as well as some really good FPS games, like AA or something like
it, lets leave a good first impression, instead of leaving them with
something like Knetwalk, which is a nice game, but I doubt an average
school kid would like it right away.

Also KDE 4.x or Gnome? for a first introduction i think KDE 4.x would
be nice, I personally prefer Gnome, but KDE 4.x has a lot more eyecandy
to it.
