[K12OSN] Ideas from you for the Ubuntu Developers Summit...let me be your voice

[Sonja Gonzalez]

Hey David-- 

Nice to hear from you. I hope your school year has started well!! Here are my top ideas on this subject... 


    1. Easier setup for integration with Active Directory, including single home folder location and UID/GID mapping. 
    2. Easier UID/GID and home folder management between servers running DHCP failover. 
    3. Inclusion of NSCD. 
    4. Inclusion of kernel server on standard edubuntu server installation. 
    5. Have USB permissions set correctly on edubuntu LTSP install. Fix issue with San Disk Cruzer USB drives with U3 installed. 
    6. Better Group Policy-type management. Sabayon is a bit of a kludge. MS's implementation is cleaner for many things. 

That's what comes to mind as I sit here watching the game :) Thanks for allowing me to give my input! Have fun at the summit! 

Sonja

Subject: [K12OSN] Ideas from you for the Ubuntu Developers Summit...let me be your voice 

Hi all, 

Let me be your voice. I have a bazillion ideas for things that we need to 
work on for Edubuntu, Open Source, and FOSS in education in general. Not 
many of my ideas are programming so much as marketing, advocacy, support 
and so forth. I'm soliciting ideas from all of you (as an educator/IT 
support person) to bring up for discussion and work at the Ubuntu 
Developers Summit in just over a week (programming ideas welcome as well). 
I will be there and would like to be able to be your "voice". Let's get 
those ideas flowing and I will add them to a wiki page so that specs can 
be generated accordingly. Let 'em rip.... 

What are your wishes....what would you like to see added....what would you 
like to see in terms of advocacy and support...what about education 
programs....what needs fixing....what could be made even easier?
