- <div class="date">19th March 2012</div>
- <div class="body"><p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux</a>
-users are spread all across the globe. The second inteview after
-<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu-announce/2012/03/msg00001.html">the
-Squeeze release</a> was publised is with John Ingleby, a teacher and
-long time Linux user in United Kingdom.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
-
-<p>I teach ICT part time at the Rudolf Steiner School in Kings
-Langley, near London, UK. Previously I worked as a technical
-author/trainer while my children attended the school, and I also
-contributed to the Schoolforge UK community with the aim of
-encouraging UK schools to adopt free/open source software. Five or six
-years ago we had about 50 schools interested in some way, but we
-weren't able to convert many of them into sustainable
-installations.</p>
-
-<p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux/Debian Edu
-project?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Skolelinux had two representatives at an early Edubuntu meeting in
-London which I attended. However at that time our school network had
-just been installed using CentOS, LTSP 4 and GNOME. When LTSP 5 came
-along we switched to Edubuntu thin client servers so now we have a
-mixed environment which includes Windows PCs and student laptops, as
-well as their MacBooks and iPads. However, the proprietary systems
-have always been rather problematic, and we never built a GUI for the
-LDAP server, so when I discovered Skolelinux is configured for all
-these things we decided to try it.</p>
-
-<p><strong>What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux/Debian
-Edu?</strong></p>
-
-<p>By far the biggest advantage is the Debian Edu community. Apart
-from that I have always believed in the same "sustainable computing"
-goals that Skolelinux is built on: installing Linux on computers which
-would otherwise be thrown away, to provide a reliable, secure and
-low-cost IT environment for schools. From my own experience I know
-that a part-time person can teach and manage a network of about 25
-Linux computers, but it would take much more of my time if we had
-proprietary software everywhere.</p>
-
-<p><strong>What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux/Debian
-Edu?</strong></p>
-
-<p>As a newcomer I'm just finding out who's who in the community and
-how you're organised, and what your procedures are for dealing with
-various things such as editing manual pages and so-on. The only
-English language mailing list seems to be for developers as well as
-users, so my inbox needs heavy pruning each day!</p>
-
-<p><strong>Which free software do you use daily?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Besides the software already mentioned at school we use Samba,
-OpenLDAP, CUPS, Nagios and Dansguardian for the network, and on the
-desktops we have LibreOffice, Firefox, GIMP and Inkscape. At home I
-use Ubuntu and an Android 4 eePad Transformer (but I'm not sure if
-that counts...)</p>
-
-<p><strong>Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
-get schools to use free software?</strong></p>
-
-<p>That's a tough question! For very many years UK schools installed
-and taught only proprietary software, so that at the highest levels
-the notion of "computer" means simply "proprietary office
-applications". However, schools today are experiencing budget
-constraints, and many are having to think hard about upgrading Windows
-XP. At the same time, we have students showing teachers how to use
-iPads, MacBooks and Android, so the choice of operating system is no
-longer quite so automatic. What is more, our government at last
-realised that we need people with programming skills, so they're
-putting coding back in the curriculum! And it's encouraging that the
-first 10,000 Raspberry Pi units sold out in 2 hours.</p>
-
-<p>I don't really know what strategy is going to get UK schools to use
-free software, but building an active community of Skolelinux/Debian
-Edu users in this country has to be part of it.</p>

- <div class="date">16th March 2012</div>
- <div class="body"><p>Documentation in Debian Edu is provided in several languages, and
-it is important to make it both easy to contribute and to keep the
-translated versions in sync. To do this we have come up with what we
-believe is a very efficient work flow.</p>
-
-<ol>
-
-<li>The documentation is written in a
-<a href="http://moinmo.in">moinmoin wiki</a> (see for example
-<a href="http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/Documentation/Squeeze">the
-Squeeze release manual</a>) with support for exporting the content as
-docbook XML.</li>
-
-<li>This docbook document is given to po4a to extract a gettext style
-.pot file with the content, which in turn is used to create .po files
-with the translated text.</li>
-
-<li>The .po files are given to translators, and they can always tell
-which part of the original wiki document is new or changed. They can
-use their normal translation tools like lokalize or poedit to write
-the translation. There is even a system in place to handle translated
-images.</li>
-
-<li>The translated .po files are combined with the original docbook
-XML document using po4a to create a translated docbook document.</li>
-
-<li>The final step is to use all the generated docbook files and
-create PDF and HTML version of the original and translated documents.</li>
-
-</ol>
-
-<p>This setup work very well, but have a few issues. The biggest
-issue is that <a href="http://moinmo.in/DocBook">the docbook support
-we use in moinmoin</a> is not actively maintained. The docbook
-support is also buggy, and our build system contain workarounds to
-make sure the generated docbook is usable despite these bugs.</p>
-
-<p>If you want to have a look at our setup, it is all there in the
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/debian-edu-doc">debian-edu-doc
-package</a>.</p>

+ <div class="body"><p>De siste månedene har jeg sammen med andre i NUUG jobbet med å
+gjøre det enklere å få innsyn i offentlige dokumenter, og dette
+inkluderer å gjøre postjournaler enklere tilgjengelig for maskinell
+analyse og søk. I den forbindelse tok jeg i dag å tittet litt på
+<a href="http://www.oep.no/">Offentlig Elektronisk Postjournal
+(OEP)</a>, FAD/DIFIs fellesløsning for departementer og statlige
+etater.</p>

+
+<p>Det er også interessant å se hvor ofte ulike etater sender inn sine
+journaloppføringer til OEP. OEP inneholder en liste med sist
+innrapporteringsdato for alle som sender til OEP, og ved å se når og
+hvor ofte det blir sendt inn fra etatene kan

+
+<p>En kan beregne lignende frekvenser ved å sammenligne
+journalføringsdato med publiseringsdato for hver enkelt oppføring i
+OEP, men den lenken legger jeg ikke ved her for å unngå at
+søkemotorroboter begynner å overbelaste Scraperwiki-databasen.</p>
+
+<p>Jeg har spurt Norges geologiske undersøkelse om hvorfor de leverer
+så sjelden, og det kommer av at de har problemer etter oppgradering av
+arkivsystemet sitt og jobber med å fikse det slik at de kan gå tilbake
+til å levere hver uke. Har ikke undersøkt noen av de andre.</p>
