02:20 jsgotangco JaneW: that seems to be stale lately 02:20 jsgotangco original doc i wrote is BreezyReleaseNotes 02:20 JaneW jsgotangco: but Ubuntu is not specifically for educators at all 02:20 highvoltage on system requirements, requirements for "LTSP Server" would also be great 02:20 HedgeMage back 02:21 jsgotangco it is probably something i wrote without thinking 02:21 JaneW ok 02:21 JaneW but punting of edubuntu is always good 02:21 HedgeMage jsgotangco: can you toss me that list please?
