Re: [school-discuss] Proposal for Schoolforge



Hi,

Good stuff, David, but a tip: It seems too heavy on tech-speak. Do try to
get simple terms or else explain these terms in the first instance. A press
release needs to be understood by all.

LUGS
FLOSC
FLOSS
EDU
FLOSS-oriented groups


The Goals section needs more crafting for the press.
> Groups be formed:

>    2. maintaining, creating, translating and updating FLOSS/EDU software

Case in point: to maintain, does that not mean to also translate, write,
and-or update? Just use "develop."
Rather than "educational community's members" -- how about for schools, or
for the educational sectors.
