+ <description><p>A few hours ago, the announcement for the first stable release of
+Debian Edu Wheezy went out from the Debian publicity team. The
+complete announcement text can be found at
+<a href="http://www.debian.org/News/2013/20130928">the Debian News
+section</a>, translated to several languages. Please check it out.</p>
+
+<p>There is one minor known problem that we will fix very soon. One
+can not install a amd64 Thin Client Server using PXE, as the /var/
+partition is too small. A workaround is to extend the partition (use
+lvresize + resize2fs in tty 2 while installing).</p>

+
+<p>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</p>
+
+<p>Debian Edu, also known as Skolelinux, is a Linux distribution based
+on Debian providing an out-of-the box environment of a completely
+configured school network. Immediately after installation a school
+server running all services needed for a school network is set up just
+waiting for users and machines being added via GOsa², a comfortable
+Web-UI. A netbooting environment is prepared using PXE, so after
+initial installation of the main server from CD or USB stick all other
+machines can be installed via the network. The provided school server
+provides LDAP database and Kerberos authentication service,
+centralized home directories, DHCP server, web proxy and many other
+services. The desktop contains more than 60 educational software
+packages and more are available from the Debian archive, and schools
+can choose between KDE, Gnome, LXDE and Xfce desktop environment.</p>
+
+<p>This is the seventh test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically
+this is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the
+Squeeze release.</p>
+
+<p>Notes for upgrades from Alpha Prereleases</p>
+
+<p>Alpha based installations should reinstall or downgrade the
+versions of gosa and libpam-mklocaluser to the ones used in this beta
+release. Both alpha and beta0 based installations should reinstall or
+deal with gosa.conf manually; there are two options: (1) Keep
+gosa.conf and edit this file as outlined on the mailing list. (2)
+Accept the new version of gosa.conf and replace both contained admin
+password placeholders with the password hashes found in the old one
+(backup copy!). In both cases all users need to change their password
+to make sure a password is set for CIFS access to their home
+directory.</p>
+
+
+<p>cheers,
+<br> Holger</p>

+ <title>Recipe to test the Freedombox project on amd64 or Raspberry Pi</title>

+ <description><p>I was introduced to the
+<a href="http://www.freedomboxfoundation.org/">Freedombox project</a>
+in 2010, when Eben Moglen presented his vision about serving the need
+of non-technical people to keep their personal information private and
+within the legal protection of their own homes. The idea is to give
+people back the power over their network and machines, and return
+Internet back to its intended peer-to-peer architecture. Instead of
+depending on a central service, the Freedombox will give everyone
+control over their own basic infrastructure.</p>
+
+<p>I've intended to join the effort since then, but other tasks have
+taken priority. But this summers nasty news about the misuse of trust
+and privilege exercised by the "western" intelligence gathering
+communities increased my eagerness to contribute to a point where I
+actually started working on the project a while back.</p>
+
+<p>The <a href="https://alioth.debian.org/projects/freedombox/">initial
+Debian initiative</a> based on the vision from Eben Moglen, is to
+create a simple and cheap Debian based appliance that anyone can hook
+up in their home and get access to secure and private services and
+communication. The initial deployment platform have been the
+<a href="http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/t-dreamplugdetails.aspx">Dreamplug</a>,
+which is a piece of hardware I do not own. So to be able to test what
+the current Freedombox setup look like, I had to come up with a way to install
+it on some hardware I do have access to. I have rewritten the
+<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedom-maker">freedom-maker</a>
+image build framework to use .deb packages instead of only copying
+setup into the boot images, and thanks to this rewrite I am able to
+set up any machine supported by Debian Wheezy as a Freedombox, using
+the previously mentioned deb (and a few support debs for packages
+missing in Debian).</p>
+
+<p>The current Freedombox setup consist of a set of bootstrapping
+scripts
+(<a href="https://github.com/petterreinholdtsen/freedombox-setup">freedombox-setup</a>),
+and a administrative web interface
+(<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/Plinth">plinth</a> + exmachina +
+withsqlite), as well as a privacy enhancing proxy based on
+<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/privoxy">privoxy</a>
+(freedombox-privoxy). There is also a web/javascript based XMPP
+client (<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/jwchat">jwchat</a>)
+trying (unsuccessfully so far) to talk to the XMPP server
+(<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/ejabberd">ejabberd</a>). The
+web interface is pluggable, and the goal is to use it to enable OpenID
+services, mesh network connectivity, use of TOR, etc, etc. Not much of
+this is really working yet, see
+<a href="https://github.com/NickDaly/freedombox-todos/blob/master/TODO">the
+project TODO</a> for links to GIT repositories. Most of the code is
+on github at the moment. The HTTP proxy is operational out of the
+box, and the admin web interface can be used to add/remove plinth
+users. I've not been able to do anything else with it so far, but
+know there are several branches spread around github and other places
+with lots of half baked features.</p>
+
+<p>Anyway, if you want to have a look at the current state, the
+following recipes should work to give you a test machine to poke
+at.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Debian Wheezy amd64</strong></p>
+
+<ol>
+
+<li>Fetch normal Debian Wheezy installation ISO.</li>
+<li>Boot from it, either as CD or USB stick.</li>
+<li><p>Press [tab] on the boot prompt and add this as a boot argument
+to the Debian installer:<p>
+<pre>url=<a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/preseed-wheezy.dat</a></pre></li>
+
+<li>Answer the few language/region/password questions and pick disk to
+install on.</li>
+
+<li>When the installation is finished and the machine have rebooted a
+few times, your Freedombox is ready for testing.</li>
+
+</ol>
+
+<p><strong>Raspberry Pi Raspbian</strong></p>
+
+<ol>
+
+<li>Fetch a Raspbian SD card image, create SD card.</li>
+<li>Boot from SD card, extend file system to fill the card completely.</li>
+<li><p>Log in and add this to /etc/sources.list:</p>
+<pre>
+deb <a href="http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/">http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox</a> wheezy main
+</pre></li>
+<li><p>Run this as root:</p>
+<pre>
+wget -O - http://www.reinholdtsen.name/freedombox/BE1A583D.asc | \
+ apt-key add -
+apt-get update
+apt-get install freedombox-setup
+/usr/lib/freedombox/setup
+</pre></li>
+<li>Reboot into your freshly created Freedombox.</li>
+
+</ol>
+
+<p>You can test it on other architectures too, but because the
+freedombox-privoxy package is binary, it will only work as intended on
+the architectures where I have had time to build the binary and put it
+in my APT repository. But do not let this stop you. It is only a
+short "<tt>apt-get source -b freedombox-privoxy</tt>" away. :)</p>
+
+<p>Note that by default Freedombox is a DHCP server on the
+192.168.1.0/24 subnet, so if this is your subnet be careful and turn
+off the DHCP server by running "<tt>update-rc.d isc-dhcp-server
+disable</tt>" as root.</p>
+
+<p>Please let me know if this works for you, or if you have any
+problems. We gather on the IRC channel
+<a href="irc://irc.debian.org:6667/%23freedombox">#freedombox</a> on
+irc.debian.org and the
+<a href="http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/freedombox-discuss">project
+mailing list</a>.</p>
+
+<p>Once you get your freedombox operational, you can visit
+<tt>http://your-host-name:8001/</tt> to see the state of the plint
+welcome screen (dead end - do not be surprised if you are unable to
+get past it), and next visit <tt>http://your-host-name:8001/help/</tt>
+to look at the rest of plinth. The default user is 'admin' and the
+default password is 'secret'.</p>
