-<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Skolelinux</a>-miljøet, får vi nå
-høre fra et nyvalgt medlem i foreningen
-<a href="http://www.friprogramvareiskolen.no/">Fri programvare i
-Skolen</a>.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Hvem er du, og hva driver du med til daglig?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Jeg heter Olav Dahlum, og er frilans oversetter, tester,
-prosjektleder og bruker av fri og åpen programvare som
-LibreOffice. Jeg er også et av styremedlemmene i FRISK.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Hvordan kom du i kontakt med Skolelinux-prosjektet?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Jeg kom i kontakt med prosjektet i 2009, da jeg ble ansatt i
-stiftelsen Åpne kontorprogram på norsk for å oversette og teste den
-norske utgaven av OpenOffice.org. Arbeidet har hele tiden vært
-koordinert sammen med Skolelinux, og mange av de samme menneskene er
-involvert, så på den måten ble jeg en del av den utvidede
-familien.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Hva er fordelene med Skolelinux slik du ser det?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Skolelinux handler i likhet med utdanningssektoren om å dele
-kunnskap med andre, og det er dette som er hovedstyrken til
-prosjektet.  Selv om Skolelinux hovedsaklig er involvert i utvikling
-av programvare, er det også et sted der man kan utfolde seg uavhengig
-av bakgrunn og ferdigheter.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Hva er ulempene med Skolelinux slik du ser det?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Liten utbredelse og manglende støtte fra leverandører som leverer
-pedagogisk programvare til skolebruk.  Kunne kanskje hatt flere
-verktøy som letter administrasjonen ytterligere, slik at også mindre
-erfarne databrukere kan utføre lett vedlikehold og rutinejobber.</p>
-
-<p><strong>Hvilken fri programvare bruker du til daglig?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Jeg er nesten forpliktet til å si at jeg bruker LibreOffice... Jeg
-bruker forøvrig frie og åpne operativsystemer basert på
-operativsystemkjernen Linux, for tiden openSUSE 12,1 med KDE4.  Men
-hvis jeg skal dra fram noen flere eksempler så er nok Mozilla Firefox
-og Thunderbird to av de jeg bruker mest. I tillegg er jeg en flittig
-bruker av OpenSSH, Irssi, Midnight Commander, Git, Subversion,
-Translation Toolkit og Super Maryo Chronicles (litt gøy skal man ha,
-og med to håndkontroller liggende er det ikke til å unngå).</p>
-
-<p><strong>Hvilken strategi tror du er den rette å bruke for å få
-skoler til å ta i bruk fri programvare?</strong></p>
-
-<p>Vi må få leverandører av pedagogisk programvare med på laget, men
-også utvikle vår egen tilpasset det norske markedet.  Det er også
-mulig å involvere utdanningssektoren direkte i arbeidet, for eksempel
-gjennom studentprosjekter der elevene selv er med å utforme
-programvare direkte eller indirekte gjennom aktive bidrag.  Dette gjør
-ikke bare samarbeidet tettere, men fokuset på standarder og friheten
-til å velge sin egen løsning vil kanskje stimulere interessen for
-framtidig deltakelse i bransjen.  Vi som driver med fri og åpen
-programvare ønsker oss ikke rene konsumenter, men tenkende og
-selvstendige individer som kan være med å skape sin egen fremtid.</p>

+      <div class="date">19th March 2012</div>
+      <div class="body"><p>Den siste uka har det vært en del skriverier om hvor store
+forskjeller det er mellom skolene når det gjelder digital kompetanse.
+Et eksempel er
+<a href="http://www.digi.no/891660/bekymret-for-it-i-skolen">oppslaget
+i Digi</a>.  Diskusjonen fikk meg til å bli litt nysgjerrig på om
+Linux-skoler har større PC-tettet enn snittet i landet.  Grunnlaget
+for diskusjonen har vært undersøkelsen
+<a href="https://iktsenteret.no/ressurser/monitor-2011-skolens-digitale-tilstand">Monitor
+2011</a>, som bruker informasjon fra
+<a href="https://www.wis.no/gsi">Grunnskolens Informasjonssystem</a>
+(GSI).  GSI-data kan lastes ned fra web og jeg lastet ned en Excel-fil
+(intet åpen standard-valg tilgjengelig) med navn på alle skoler,
+hvilke kommune de befinner seg i og hvor mange elever pr. elev-PC de
+har rapportert inn.  For å få en ide om svaret trenger jeg deretter å
+vite hvilke skoler i landet som bruker Linux, slik at jeg kan slå dem
+opp i GSI og finne ut hvor stor PC-tetthet de har.</p>
+
+<p>Jeg vet om skoler i Balsfjord, Flora, Harstad, Kongsvinger, Narvik,
+Nittedal, Nord-Odal, Randaberg og Sunndal som bruker Skolelinux eller
+andre Linux-varianter.  Jeg tror det er flere enn de 56 skolene jeg
+har klart å identifisere de siste dagene, men har ikke klart å få det
+bekreftet med offentlige kilder.</p>
+
+<p>Monitor 2011-rapporteres side 95 forteller at det "ifølge GSI
+(20120-2011) er det 3,11 elever per datamaskin når vi tar med alle
+grunnskoler (1.-10.trinn)".  For de 56 Linux-skolene jeg har klart å
+koble mot informasjon i GSI er det 2,28 elever per elevdatamaskin,
+hvilket betyr at det er 36% høyere PC-tetthet på Linux-skoler enn
+landsgjennomsnittet.  Linux-skolen med høyest tettet blant de jeg har
+notert -skole er Flora ungdomsskule i Flora kommune med 0.82 elev
+pr. PC (482 elever, 588 elevdatamaskiner).</p>
+
+<p>Skolelinux gir datamaskiner lengre levetid, og en kan dermed få
+flere operative datamaskiner for samme budsjett, i tillegg til en
+rekke andre fordeler.  Kan det være forklaringen på forskjellen?</p>
+
+<p>Tallene må tas med en liten klype, da GSI ser ut til å ha endel
+feilføringer.  Jeg synes i hvert fall en skole med 423 elever og 9
+elevmaskiner ser mistenkelig ut.  Eller en skole med 346 elever, 0
+elevmaskiner, som er et annet ekstremt eksempel jeg fant.</p>
+
+<p>Takk til Sturle Sunde, Klaus Ade Johnstad, Ole-Anders Andreassen og
+Trond Mæhlum for innspill om skoler med Linux.</p>

+<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="body"><p>New in the Squeeze version of
-<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux</a> is the
-ability for clients to automatically configure their proxy settings
-based on their environment.  We want all systems on the client to use
-the WPAD based proxy definition fetched from <tt>http://wpad/wpad.dat</tt>, to
-allow sites to control the proxy setting from a central place and make
-sure clients do not have hard coded proxy settings.  The schools can
-change the global proxy setting by editing
-<tt>tjener:/etc/debian-edu/www/wpad.dat</tt> and the change propagate
-to all Debian Edu clients in the network.</p>
-
-<p>The problem is that some systems do not understand the WPAD system.
-In other words, how do one get from a WPAD file like this (this is a
-simple one, they can run arbitrary code):</p>
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
-{
-   if (!isResolvable(host) ||
-       isPlainHostName(host) ||
-       dnsDomainIs(host, ".intern"))
-      return "DIRECT";
-   else
-      return "PROXY webcache:3128; DIRECT";
-}
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-<p>to a proxy setting in the process environment looking like this:</p>
-
-<blockquote><pre>
-http_proxy=http://webcache:3128/
-ftp_proxy=http://webcache:3128/
-</pre></blockquote>
-
-<p>To do this conversion I developed a perl script that will execute
-the javascript fragment in the WPAD file and return the proxy that
-would be used for
-<tt><a href="http://www.debian.org/">http://www.debian.org/</a></tt>,
-and insert this extracted proxy URL in <tt>/etc/environment</tt> and
-<tt>/etc/apt/apt.conf</tt>.  The perl script wpad-extract work just
-fine in Squeeze, but in Wheezy the library it need to run the
-javascript code is <a href="http://bugs.debian.org/631045">no longer
-able to build</a> because the C library it depended on is now a C++
-library.  I hope someone find a solution to that problem before Wheezy
-is frozen.  An alternative would be for us to rewrite wpad-extract to
-use some other javascript library currently working in Wheezy, but no
-known alternative is known at the moment.</p>
-
-<p>This automatic proxy system allow the roaming workstation (aka
-laptop) setup in Debian Edu/Squeeze to use the proxy when the laptop
-is connected to the backbone network in a Debian Edu setup, and to
-automatically use any proxy present and announced using the WPAD
-feature when it is connected to other networks.  And if no proxy is
-announced, direct connections will be used instead.</p>
-
-<p>Silently using a proxy announced on the network might be a privacy
-or security problem.  But those controlling DHCP and DNS on a network
-could just as easily set up a transparent proxy, and force all HTTP
-and FTP connections to use a proxy anyway, so I consider that
-distinction to be academic.  If you are afraid of using the wrong
-proxy, you should avoid connecting to the network in question in the
-first place.  In Debian Edu, the proxy setup is updated using dhcp and
-ifupdown hooks, to make sure the configuration is updated every time
-the network setup changes.</p>

+it is important to make it both easy to contribute and to keep the

+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>

+<a href="http://www.slxdrift.no/">Skolelinux Drift AS</a>, selskapet
+prosjektet opprettet som et tilbud til skoler som ønsket en
+kommersiell samarbeidsparter.  Det bør nevnes at jeg er styremedlem i
+Skolelinux Drift AS og styreleder i selskapets hovedeier stiftelsen
+<a href="http://www.linuxiskolen.no/slxdebianlabs/">SLX Debian Labs</a>
+som beskytter verdiene til Skolelinux-prosjektet, og kjenner KÃ¥re den
+veien.</p>
 
 <p><strong>Hvem er du, og hva driver du med til daglig?</strong></p>
 
-<p>Jeg heter Axel Bojer og er datalærer, tysklærer, oversetter med
-mere.</p>
+<p>Jeg har siden januar 2010 vært daglig leder i Skolelinux Drift AS,
+som leverer support, installasjon, tilpasning, drift, og opplæring på
+Debian Edu / Skolelinux. Fra 2012 er jeg valgt inn som styremedlem i
+FRiSK.  Min forrige jobb var som KAM i Redpill Linpro (som er en av
+eierne i Skolelinux Drift).  Før det var jeg daglig leder i et eget 7
+manns konsulent selskap som også startet med fri programvare mot
+slutten.</p>
 
 <p><strong>Hvordan kom du i kontakt med Skolelinux-prosjektet?</strong></p>
 
-<p>Tror jeg så en annonsering på nettet i slutten av 2001 og ville
-være med som oversetter.  Jeg kom med på en utviklersamling og
-prosjektet var da helt i starten.  Det var spennende å være med mens
-prosjektet vokste til og utviklet seg.</p>
-
-<p>Jeg har «alltid» vært språkinteressert og hadde nettopp startet med
-Linux og tror jeg tenkte det passet å bidra.  Var også glad for å få
-en Debian-distribusjon, og ville gjerne bruke den selv.  Til å begynne
-med brukte jeg først Mandrake og så Debian. Og siden jeg oppdaget at
-det ikke var noen mulighet for å bruke den som enkeltstående i lang
-tid, så gikk jeg etterhvert over til Kubuntu</p>
+<p>Jeg hørte om det først når jeg jobbet i Redpill Linpro.  Men jeg
+har også en datter som går på en friskole, som også bruker Skolelinux.
+Som kjent har ikke friskoler de samme økonomiske rammebetingelsene som
+offentlige skoler, så for dem var det det absolutt beste alternativet.
+De anser også Skolelinux som et stabilt system, som bare går og går (i
+motsetning til det lille Windows-baserte nettverket de har på
+admin-siden).</p>
 
 <p><strong>Hva er fordelene med Skolelinux slik du ser det?</strong></p>
 
-<p>Løsningen er forholdsvis lett å sette opp, gratis, fri programvare
-og gjør det mulig å gjenbruke eldre maskiner.  Det fine med Debian er
-at det er stabilt og har en veldig stor mengde programmer. Jeg liker
-også apt.  :-) Jeg liker også friheten ved Linux og muligheten til å
-delta og forme sin egen datahverdag.</p>
+<p>Sentralisert drift av tynne og diskløse arbeidsstasjoner. Således
+lydløse og raskere arbeidsstasjoner som er bedre i klasserommet.
+Lengre levetid på PC'er.  Store besparelser på maskinvare og drift. Og
+så klart fjerning av alle lisenskostnader. Personlig synes jeg også at
+mange av programmene er bedre enn alternativene. Men dette er ofte en
+smakssak og avhengig om man må ha det man er vant til fra før.</p>
 
 <p><strong>Hva er ulempene med Skolelinux slik du ser det?</strong></p>
 
-<p>Skolelinux er for lite kjent og for sent ute med å gi ut nye
-versjoner.</p>
-
-<p>Da jeg selv i hovedsak bruker Kubuntu, så kan jeg egentlig ikke
-svare så detaljert rundt ulempene med Skolelinux.  Hovedårsaken til at
-jeg bruker Kubuntu er nok at da vi begynte med det mener jeg det ikke
-var noen annen løsning.  «Vandrende arbeidsstasjon» mener jeg ikke
-fantes da.  Dessuten ville jeg ha siste versjon, da den KDE-versjonen
-som var i Skolelinux den gangen var en god del enklere (tror det var
-KDE 2) var dårligere i mine øyne enn versjon 3.</p>
+<p>For lite kjentskap til løsningen.  Noen ganger for dårlig
+kompatibilitet med arbeidsstasjoners/bærbare maskiner sine
+nettverksdrivere eller skjermkort. Men dette løser vi i skolene ved
+standardisering. Ellers er det få, om nesten ingen, av de kjente
+maskinvare / infrastruktur leverandørene til fylkes- / kommuner som
+tilbyr denne plattformen.  Skal dette endre seg så må kommunene selv
+sette slike krav til leverandørene.</p>
 
 <p><strong>Hvilken fri programvare bruker du til daglig?</strong></p>
 
-<p>Jeg bruker blant annet Kubuntu, LibreOffice, Thunderbird, Firefox,
-Kate, <a href="http://comix.sourceforge.net/">Comix</a> og Konsole.  Og
-en hel haug andre ved behov :-)</p>
-
-<p>Har oversatt Comix selv, men det er jo ikke skjedd noe med Comix
-siden 2009, så den er det nok bare jeg som har.  Om andre vil ha den
-gir jeg den gjerne videre.  Ser at noen har startet på
-<a href="http://mcomix.sourceforge.net/">MComix</a> siden jeg så på så
-på dette sist, så nå er jeg igang med å teste og oversette den
-også.</p>
+<p>Har brukt OpenOffice.org siden starten (2001 ?), Kun Linux på
+desktop siden 2005. Bruker i dag Kubuntu, Libreoffice og ymse annet
+programvare til ulik kontorbruk som er lett å installere / teste via
+alle programarkivene som finnes.</p>
 
 <p><strong>Hvilken strategi tror du er den rette å bruke for å få
 skoler til å ta i bruk fri programvare?</strong></p>
 
-<p>Det viktigste er å forankre beslutningen i kollegiet og med de som
-er ansvarlige for å vedlikeholde og bruke datamaskinene.  Flest mulig
-bør være med på å holde det (sosialt) vedlike, kjenne og støtte
-prinsippene. Som enkeltmannsprosjekt blir det lett veldig sårbart,
-særlig når (Skole)linux ennå i stor grad er en motkultur og ikke noe
-en stor nok andel av beslutningstakere, brukere osv kjenner til og
-bruker.</p>
-
-<p>Jeg tror det viktigste er å fortsette å holde fri programvare godt,
-oppdatert, minimere antall feil, ha en god kontakt med brukerne og
-attraktivt og spennende programmer. Beholde alt som er bra og ha det
-tilgjengelig samtidig som man tilbyr det nyeste og rareste for de som
-vil ha det.</p>
+<p>Fortsette å presentere flere av de gode eksemplene hvor Debian Edu
+/ Skolelinux brukes i kommuner og enkeltskoler.  Vi må få bedre frem
+at det er mulig tilknytte både Windows og Mac klienter på denne
+plattformen (selv om det vil øke driftskostnadene).  Dette gjøres
+mange steder.  Spesielt er det mange lærere som ønsker å bruke
+Windows/Mac-bærbare, gjerne som sin private PC også. Det er også mulig
+for kommunen å integrere med Active Directory i stedet for OpenLDAP
+som kommer med ut av boksen (selv om også dette øker kostnadene).
+Dette vil muligens bidra til å fjerne noe motstand hos noen
+potensielle brukere / driftpersonell for å ta i bruk noe
+nytt. Fremveksten av mobile brukere og nettbrett går i vår favør.
+Brukerne blir kjent og vant til flere nye operativsystemer /
+brukergrensesnitt. Så utviklerfellesskapet bør jobbe videre med å
+integrere flere nye klienttyper, som ultra lav-kostklienter og
+nettbrett (blant annet fri programvare-alternativet
+<a href="http://makeplaylive.com/">Spark</a> med
+<a href="http://www.merproject.org/">Mer OS</a> og
+<a href="http://plasma-active.org/">KDE Active Plasma</a>).</p>

-      <div class="date"> 5th February 2012</div>
-      <div class="body"><p>Since the Lenny version of
-<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux</a>, a
-feature to save power have been included.  It is as simple as it is
-practical: Shut down unused clients at night, and turn them on again
-in the morning.  This is done using the
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/s/shutdown-at-night.html">shutdown-at-night</a> Debian package.</p>
-
-<p>To enable this feature on a client, the machine need to be added to
-the netgroup shutdown-at-night-hosts.  For Debian Edu, this is done in
-LDAP, and once this is in place, the machine in question will check
-every hour from 16:00 until 06:00 to see if the machine is unused, and
-shut it down if it is.  If the hardware in question is supported by
-the
-<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/n/nvram-wakeup.html">nvram-wakeup</a>
-package, the BIOS is told to turn the machine back on around 07:00 +-
-10 minutes.  If this isn't working, one can configure wake-on-lan to
-try to turn on the client.  The wake-on-lan option is only documented
-and not enabled by default in Debian Edu.</p>
-
-<p>It is important to not turn all machines on at once, as this can
-blow a fuse if several computers are connected to the same fuse like
-the common setup for a classroom.  The nvram-wakeup method only work
-for machines with a functioning hardware/BIOS clock.  I've seen old
-machines where the BIOS battery were dead and the hardware clock were
-starting from 0 (or was it 1990?) every boot.  If you have one of
-those, you have to turn on the computer manually.</p>
-
-<p>The shutdown-at-night package is completely self contained, and can
-also be used outside the Debian Edu environment.  For those without a
-central LDAP server with netgroups, one can instead touch the file
-<tt>/etc/shutdown-at-night/shutdown-at-night</tt> to enable it.
-Perhaps you too can use it to save some power?</p>

-  the installation.</li>
-
-<li>Too full partitions are now automatically extended on the Main
-  Server, based on the rules specified in /etc/fsautoresizetab.</li>
-
-<li>The CUPS queues are now automatically flushed every night, and all
-  disabled queues are restarted every hour.  This should cut down on
-  the amount of manual administration needed for printers.</li>
-
-<li>The set of initial users have been changed.  Now a personal user
-  for the local system administrator is created during installation
-  instead of the previously created localadmin and super-admin users,
-  and this user is granted administrative privileges using group
-  membership.  This reduces the number of passwords one need to keep
-  up to date on the system.</li>

+      <div class="date"> 9th March 2012</div>
+      <div class="body"><p>Inspired by <a href="http://raphaelhertzog.com/tag/interview/">the
+interview series</a> conducted by Raphael, I started a Norwegian
+interview series with people involved in the Debian Edu / Skolelinux
+community.  This was so popular that I believe it is time to move to a
+more international audience.</p>
+
+<p>While <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu and
+Skolelinux</a> originated in France and Norway, and have most users in
+Europe, there are users all around the globe.  One of those far away
+from me is Nigel Barker, a long time Debian Edu system administrator
+and contributor.  It is thanks to him that Debian Edu is adjusted to
+work out of the box in Japan.  I got him to answer a few questions,
+and am happy to share the response with you. :)
+
+
+<p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
+
+<p>My name is Nigel Barker, and I am British. I am married to Yumiko,
+and we have three lovely children, aged 15, 14 and 4(!) I am the IT
+Coordinator at Hiroshima International School, Japan. I am also a
+teacher, and in fact I spend most of my day teaching Mathematics,
+Science, IT, and Chemistry. I was originally a Chemistry teacher, but
+I have always had an interest in computers. Another teacher teaches
+primary school IT, but apart from that I am the only computer person,
+so that means I am the network manager, technician and webmaster,
+also, and I help people with their computer problems. I teach python
+to beginners in an after-school club. I am way too busy, so I really
+appreciate the simplicity of Skolelinux.</p>
+
+<p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux/Debian Edu
+project?</strong></p>
+
+<p>In around 2004 or 5 I discovered the ltsp project, and set up a
+server in the IT lab. I wanted some way to connect it to our central
+samba server, which I was also quite poor at configuring. I discovered
+Edubuntu when it came out, but it didn't really improve my setup. I
+did various desperate searches for things like "school Linux server"
+and ended up in a document called "Drift" something or other. Reading
+there it became clear that Skolelinux was going to solve all my
+problems in one go. I was very excited, but apprehensive, because my
+previous attempts to install Debian had ended in failure (I used
+Mandrake for everything - ltsp, samba, apache, mail, ns...). I
+downloaded a beta version, had some problems, so subscribed to the
+Debian Edu list for help. I have remained subscribed ever since, and
+my school has run a Skolelinux network since Sarge.</p>
+
+<p><strong>What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux/Debian
+Edu?</strong></p>
+
+<p>For me the integrated setup. This is not just the server, or the
+workstation, or the ltsp. Its all of them, and its all configured
+ready to go. I read somewhere in the early documentation that it is
+designed to be setup and managed by the Maths or Science teacher, who
+doesn't necessarily know much about computers, in a small Norwegian
+school. That describes me perfectly if you replace Norway with
+Japan.</p>
+
+<p><strong>What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux/Debian
+Edu?</strong></p>
+
+<p>The desktop is fairly plain. If you compare it with Edubuntu, who
+have fun themes for children, or with distributions such as Mint, who
+make the desktop beautiful. They create a good impression on people
+who don't need to understand how to use any of it, but who might be
+important to the school. School administrators or directors, for
+instance, or parents. Even kids. Debian itself usually has ugly
+default theme settings. It was my dream a few years back that some
+kind of integration would allow Edubuntu to do the desktop stuff and
+Debian Edu the servers, but now I realise how impossible that is.  A
+second disadvantage is that if something goes wrong, or you need to
+customise something, then suddenly the level of expertise required
+multiplies. For example, backup wasn't working properly in Lenny. It
+took me ages to learn how to set up my own server to do rsync backups.
+I am afraid of anything to do with ldap, but perhaps Gosa will
+help.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Which free software do you use daily?</strong></p>
+
+<p>Nowadays I only use Debian on my personal computers. I have one for
+studio work (I play guitar and write songs), running AV Linux
+(customised Debian) a netbook running Squeeze, and a bigger laptop
+still running Skolelinux Lenny workstation. I have a Tjener in my
+house, that's very useful for the family photos and music.  At school
+the students only use Skolelinux. (Some teachers and the office still
+have windows). So that means we only use free software all day every
+day. Open office, The GIMP, Firefox/Iceweasel, VLC and Audacity are
+installed on every computer in school, irrespective of OS.  We also
+have Koha on Debian for the library, and Apache, Moodle, b2evolution
+and Etomite on Debian for the www. The firewall is Untangle.</p>
+
+<p><strong>Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
+get schools to use free software?</strong></p>
+
+<p>Current trends are in our favour. Open source is big in industry,
+and ordinary people have heard of it. The spread of Android and the
+popularity of Apple have helped to weaken the impression that you have
+to have Microsoft on everything. People complain to me much less about
+file formats and Word than they did 5 years ago.  The Edu aspect is
+also a selling point. This is all customised for schools. Where is the
+Windows-edu, or the Mac-edu?  But of course the main attraction is
+budget.The trick is to convince people that the quality is not
+compromised when you stop paying and use free software instead. That
+is one reason why I say the desktop experience is a weakness. People
+are not impressed when their USB drive doesn't work, or their browser
+doesn't play flash, for example.</p>

-This is the sad fact of todays computers.  In the next version of
-<a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu / Skolelinux</a> based
-on Squeeze, we provide several scripts and modifications to make
-firmware blobs easier to handle.  The common use case I run into is a
-laptop with a wireless network card requiring non-free firmware to
-work, but there are other use cases as well.</p>
-
-<p>First and foremost, Debian Edu provide ISO images for DVD and CD
-with all firmware packages in the Debian sections main and non-free
-included, to ensure debian-installer find and can install all of them
-during installation.  This take care firmware for network devices used
-by the installer when installing from from local media.  But for
-example multimedia devices are not activated in the installer and are
-not taken care of by this.</p>
-
-<p>For non-network devices, we provide the script
-<tt>/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/auto-addfirmware</tt> which
-search through the <tt>dmesg</tt> output for drivers requesting extra
-firmware.  The firmware file name is looked up in the Contents-ARCH.gz
-file available in the package repository, and the packages providing
-the requested firmware file(s) is installed.  I have proposed to do
-something similar in debian-installer (BTS report
-<a href="http://bugs.debian.org/655507">#655507</a>), to allow PXE
-installs of Debian to handle firmware installation better.  Run the
-script as root from the command line to fetch and install the needed
-firmware packages.</p>
-
-<p>Debian Edu provide PXE installation of Debian out of the box, and
-because some machines need firmware to get their network cards
-working, the installation initrd some times need extra firmware
-included to be able to install at all.  To fill the PXE installation
-initrd with extra firmware, the
-<tt>/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/pxe-addfirmware</tt> script is
-provided.  Again, just run it as root on the command line to fill the
-PXE initrd with firmware packages.</p>
-
-<p>Last, some LTSP clients might also need firmware to get their
-network cards working.  For this,
-<tt>/usr/share/debian-edu-config/tools/ltsp-addfirmware</tt> is
-provided to update the LTSP initrd with firmware blobs.  It is used
-the same way as the other firmware related tools.</p>
-
-<p>At the moment, we do not run any of these during installation.  We
-do not know if this is acceptable for the local administrator to use
-non-free software, and it is their choice.</p>
-
-<p>We plan to release beta3 this weekend.  You might want to give it a

-<p>Som en kan se der er det noen oversettelser som mangler.  Det hadde

-ble oversatt til nordsamisk, men for å få det til må noen som forstår
-språket melde seg til dyst.  Det er mangel på nordsamiske oversettere
-av fri programvare.  Hvis noen starter raskt, så bør en rekke å
-fullføre Wheezy-utgaven før den gis ut. :)</p>
-

+      <div class="date"> 5th March 2012</div>
+      <div class="body"><p>Tok nettopp en titt på listen over løste problemer i
+<a href="http://www.fiksgatami.no/">FiksGataMi</a> (hentet via
+<a href="http://www.fiksgatami.no/open311">Open311-søkegrensesnittet</a>),
+og lot meg imponere over Hamar kommunes raske respons.  Sjekk
+<a href="http://www.fiksgatami.no/report/10791">rapport #10791</a>, der
+Hamar kommune kl. 10:19 i dag får beskjed om at det er dårlig
+brøyting, allerede 10:50 melder kommunen tilbake at de er på saken.
+18:26 samme dag melder så innsender at problemet er løst.  Hatten av
+for folkene i Hamar kommune!</p>
+
+<p>Apropos bra respons.  En bruker sendte for noen dager inn følgende
+tilbakemelding til oss som står bak tjenesten.</p>
+
+<p><blockquote>Rapporterte inn slukte gatelys på Torsnesveien, og to
+uker etterpå er lysene tilbake. Flott service!</blockquote></p>
+
+<p>Det er veldig hyggelig å høre at FiksGataMi fungerer bra for
+innbyggerne.  Måtte alle landets innbyggere få samme gode erfaring med
+FiksGataMi og det offentlige.  I dag er det 52 kommuner som har lenke
+til FiksGataMi fra sine nettsider, og dermed indikerer at de liker vår
+tjeneste.  Måtte de få følge av resten av landets kommuner snart. :)</p>

-      <div class="date">25th January 2012</div>
-      <div class="body"><p>The next version of <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu
-/ Skolelinux</a> will include a new tool
-<tt>sitesummary2ldapdhcp</tt>, which can be used to quickly set up all
-the computers in a school without much manual labour.  Here is a short
-summary on how to use it to set up a new school.</p>
-
-<p>First, install a combined Main Server and Thin Client Server as the
-central server in the network.  Next, PXE boot all the client machines
-as thin clients and wait 5 minutes after the last client booted to
-allow the clients to report their existence to the central server.  When
-this is done, log on to the central server and run
-<tt>sitesummary2ldapdhcp -a</tt> in the <tt>konsole</tt> to use the
-collected information to generate system objects in LDAP.  The output
-will look similar to this:</p>
-
-<p><blockquote><pre>
-% sitesummary2ldapdhcp -a
-info: Updating machine tjener.intern [10.0.2.2] id ether-00:01:02:03:04:05.
-info: Create GOsa machine for auto-mac-00-01-02-03-04-06 [10.0.16.20] id ether-00:01:02:03:04:06.
-
-Enter password if you want to activate these changes, and ^c to abort.
-
-Connecting to LDAP as cn=admin,ou=ldap-access,dc=skole,dc=skolelinux,dc=no
-enter password: *******
-% 
-</pre></blockquote></p>
-
-<p>After providing the LDAP administrative password (the same as the
-root password set during installation), the LDAP database will be
-populated with system objects for each PXE booted machine with
-automatically generated names.  The final step to set up the school is
-then to log into <a href="https://oss.gonicus.de/labs/gosa/">GOsa</a>,
-the web based user, group and system administration system to change
-system names, add systems to the correct host groups and finally
-enable DHCP and DNS for the systems.  All clients that should be used
-as diskless workstations should be added to the workstation-hosts
-group.  After this is done, all computers can be booted again via PXE
-and get their assigned names and group based configuration
-automatically.</p>
-
-<p>We plan to release beta3 with the updated version of this feature
-enabled this weekend.  You might want to give it a try.</p>
-
-<p>Update 2012-01-28: When calling sitesummary2ldapdhcp to add new
-hosts, one need to add the option -a.  I forgot to mention this in my
-original text, and have added it to the text now.</p>
