<> ||<> || == Project Focus == * To provide computer systems to families with school-age children who can not otherwise afford them. * Use Xubuntu derivative and include educational applications. == Roadmap: (To do items...in order) == * Petition local organizations to donate functional machines. '''(In progress)''' * prefer 500mhz or greater, and intact. Other specs are variable. * Determine central meeting place. '''(In Discussion)''' * Our supplies are spread out and need to be moved to a central location to be tested and prepared for installation. * Develop our Linux package. '''(In Discussion)''' * use xubuntu derivative that will run on slow machines. * try to standardize the package for slipstreaming. * Wikipedia mirror? That's over 10GB of data. * Locate suitable donation candidates and expand the project. '''(In Discussion)''' == Supplies == * 60 computers * 11 monitors (need to be checked) == Topics of discussion: == * Who can get machines? How many and what kind of Specs? * What should our MINIMUM baseline specs be? Most utilities will run reasonably well on 500mhz. * What do we want in our Linux Package? Who has the expertise to slipstream this into one install CD? All of this is in order of priority. I will update this post periodically with important info from the thread. == Packages == If you have an idea of what packages you think should go on these machines then add it to the [[KentuckyTeam/CharityProject/PackageList| Package List]]. == Forum info == To make comments on the project, or ask questions, go to the forum at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=351344 == Members == [[KentuckyTeam/CharityProject/Members|Charity Project Members]]
