+today. This is the release announcement:</p>
+
+<p><strong>New features for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~alpha3 released
+2013-07-03</strong></p>
+
+<p>These are the release notes for for Debian Edu / Skolelinux
+7.1+edu0~alpha3, based on Debian with codename "Wheezy".</p>
+
+<p><strong>About Debian Edu and Skolelinux</strong></p>
+
+<p><a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu, also known as
+Skolelinux</a>, 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, DVD 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
+<a href="http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/Educational_applications_included_in_Debian_Edu___Skolelinux__the_screenshot_collection____.html">more
+than 60 educational software packages</a> 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 fourth test release based on Debian Wheezy. Basically
+this is an updated and slightly improved version compared to the
+Squeeze release.</p>

+ <li>Dropped ispell dictionaries from our default installation.</li>
+ <li>Dropped menu-xdg from the KDE desktop option, to drop the Debian
+ submenu. It was not included with Gnome, LXDE or Xfce, so this
+ brings KDE in line with the others.</li>
+ <li>Dropped xdrawchem, xjig and xsok from our default installation as
+ they don't have a desktop menu entry and thus won't show up in the
+ menu now that menu-xdg was removed.</li>
+ <li>Removed the killer system to kill left behind processes on
+ multi-user machines, as it was no longer able to understand when a
+ X display was in use and killed the processes of the active users
+ too.</li>
+ <li>Dropped the golearn (from goplay) package as the debtags in wheezy
+ are too few to make the package useful.</li>
</ul>

-<p>Det bør nevnes at da jeg ble nektet innsyn hos mottaker Fornyingsdepartementet på
-høringsdokumentene som DIFI hadde sendt ut, spurte jeg DIFI om innsyn
-i stedet. Det fikk jeg i løpet av et par dager. Moralen er at hvis
-ikke mottaker ikke vil gi innsyn, spør avsender i stedet. :) Her er de
-tilsvarende dokumentene jeg fikk innsyn i fra DIFI:</p>
-
+<p><strong>Other changes</strong></p>
+<ul>

+ <li>Made sure root and user passwords were not left behind in the
+ debconf database after installation on Main Server installations.</li>
+ <li>Made Roaming Workstation dynamic setup more robust and added draft

+ Active Directory server instead of a Debian Edu Main Server.</li>
+ <li>Update system to install needed firmware packages during
+ installation, to work properly in Wheezy.</li>

+<p><strong>How to report bugs</strong></p>
-<p>Det jeg synes er mest interessant er endel av aktørene som
-protesterte på fjerningen (Kartverket, Drammen kommune), og hvordan
-høringsoppsummeringen ikke tar stilling til effekten av å fjerne ODF
-fra katalogen.</p>
