DebianEdu Announced

Bill Kendrick writes "There's been an announcement on debian-devel-announce about a new subproject, DebianEdu, which "aims to make Debian the best distribution available for educational use." As a developer with some stuff in Debian Jr., I'm happy to see some focus on an honest-to-goodness education project!"

Mandrake all over again?

Hmmmm, this follows on from the earlier posting [slashdot.org] of the interview with Gael Duval of Mandrake who said
"GD: For one year, we had a so-called "World Class Management" team that left us in a very bad financial situation, and engaged the company in ventures (such as e-learning) that we should never have been involved with. But that's all part of our history now, so I'd prefer to not dwell too much on that. "

I wonder if this is the kind of project he was talking about and if Debian have taken on board the Mandrake experiance.
