+<p>Michael Biebl suggested to me on IRC, that I changed my automated
+upgrade testing of the
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/~pere/debian-upgrade-testing/">Lenny
+Gnome and KDE Desktop</a> to do <tt>apt-get autoremove</tt> when using apt-get.
+This seem like a very good idea, so I adjusted by test scripts and
+can now present the updated result from today:</p>
+
+<p>This is for Gnome:</p>
+
+<p>Installed using apt-get, missing with aptitude</p>

+<p>Running apt-get autoremove made the results using apt-get and
+aptitude a bit more similar, but there are still quite a lott of
+differences. I have no idea what packages should be installed after
+the upgrade, but hope those that do can have a look.</p>

+<p>Jeg registrerer med vond smak i munnen at Den Norske Dataforening
+<a
+href="http://www.dataforeningen.no/hedret-med-rosingprisen.4849070-133913.html">hedrer
+overvåkning av barn med Rosingsprisen for kreativitet i år</a>. Jeg
+er glad jeg nå er meldt ut av DND.</p>
+
+<p>Å elektronisk overvåke sine barn er ikke å gjøre dem en tjeneste,
+men et overgrep mot individer i utvikling som bør læres opp til å ta
+egne valg.</p>
+
+<p>For å sitere Datatilsynets nye leder, Bjørn Erik Thon, i
+<a href="http://www.idg.no/computerworld/article174262.ece">et intervju
+med Computerworld Norge</A>:</p>
+
+<p><blockquote>
+- For alle som har barn, meg selv inkludert, er førstetanken at det
+hadde vært fint å vite hvor barnet sitt er til enhver tid. Men ungene
+har ikke godt av det. De er små individer som skal søke rundt og finne
+sine små gjemmesteder og utvide horisonten, uten at foreldrene ser dem
+i kortene. Det kan være fristende, men jeg ville ikke gått inn i
+dette.
+</blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Det er skremmende å se at DND mener en tjeneste som legger opp til
+slike overgrep bør hedres. Å flytte oppveksten for barn inn i en
+virtuell
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panopticon">Panopticon</a> er et
+grovt overgrep og vil gjøre skade på barnenes utvikling, og foreldre
+burde tenke seg godt om før de gir etter for sine instinkter her.</p>
+
+<p>Blipper-tjenesten får meg til å tenke på bøkene til
+<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Twelve_Hawks">John Twelve
+Hawks</a>, som forbilledlig beskriver hvordan et totalitært
+overvåkningssamfunn bygges sakte men sikkert rundt oss, satt sammen av
+gode intensjoner og manglende bevissthet om hvilke prinsipper et
+liberalt demokrati er fundamentert på. Jeg har hatt stor glede av å
+lese alle de tre bøkene.</p>

+ <title>Why isn't Debian Edu using VLC?</title>
+ <link>http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Why_isn_t_Debian_Edu_using_VLC_.html</link>

+ <description>
+<p>In the latest issue of Linux Journal, the readers choices were
+presented, and the winner among the multimedia player were VLC.
+Personally, I like VLC, and it is my player of choice when I first try
+to play a video file or stream. Only if VLC fail will I drag out
+gmplayer to see if it can do better. The reason is mostly the failure
+model and trust. When VLC fail, it normally pop up a error message
+reporting the problem. When mplayer fail, it normally segfault or
+just hangs. The latter failure mode drain my trust in the program.<p>
+
+<p>But even if VLC is my player of choice, we have choosen to use
+mplayer in <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian
+Edu/Skolelinux</a>. The reason is simple. We need a good browser
+plugin to play web videos seamlessly, and the VLC browser plugin is
+not very good. For example, it lack in-line control buttons, so there
+is no way for the user to pause the video. Also, when I
+<a href="http://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/BrowserMultimedia">last
+tested the browser plugins</a> available in Debian, the VLC plugin
+failed on several video pages where mplayer based plugins worked. If
+the browser plugin for VLC was as good as the gecko-mediaplayer
+package (which uses mplayer), we would switch.</P>
+
+<p>While VLC is a good player, its user interface is slightly
+annoying. The most annoying feature is its inconsistent use of
+keyboard shortcuts. When the player is in full screen mode, its
+shortcuts are different from when it is playing the video in a window.
+For example, space only work as pause when in full screen mode. I
+wish it had consisten shortcuts and that space also would work when in
+window mode. Another nice shortcut in gmplayer is [enter] to restart
+the current video. It is very nice when playing short videos from the
+web and want to restart it when new people arrive to have a look at
+what is going on.</p>

+<p>On friday, the first Debian Edu / Skolelinux
+<a href="http://www.friprogramvareiskolen.no/Gathering/2010-12-03-05-Oslo">development
+gathering</a> in a long time take place here in Oslo, Norway. I
+really look forward to seeing all the good people working on the
+Squeeze release. The gathering is open for everyone interested in
+learning more about Debian Edu / Skolelinux.</p>
+
+<p>On Saturday, the Norwegian member organization taking care of
+organizing these development gatherings, Fri Programvare i Skolen,
+will hold its
+<a href="http://friprogramvareiskolen.no/Genfors/2010">General Assembly
+for 2010</a>. Membership is open for all, and currently there are 388
+people registered as members. Last year 32 members cast their vote in
+the memberdb based election system. I hope more people find time to
+vote this year.</p>
