+Title: Debian Wheezy is out - and Debian Edu / Skolelinux should soon follow! #newinwheezy

+<p>When I woke up this morning, I was very happy to see that the
+<a href="http://www.debian.org/News/2013/20130504">release announcement
+for Debian Wheezy</a> was waiting in my mail box.  This is a great
+release, and I expect to move my machines at home over to it fairly
+soon.</p>
+
+<p>The new debian release contain heaps of new stuff, and one program
+in particular make me very happy to see included.  The
+<a href="http://scratch.mit.edu/">Scratch</a> program, made famous by
+the <a href="http://www.code.org/">Teach kid code</a> movement, is
+included for the first time.  Alongside similar programs like
+<a href="http://edu.kde.org/kturtle/">kturtle</a> and
+<a href="http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Activities/Turtle_Art">turtleart</a>,
+it allow for visual programming where syntax errors can not happen,
+and a friendly programming environment for learning to control the
+computer.  Scratch will also be included in the next release of Debian
+Edu.</a>
+
+<p>And now that Wheezy is wrapped up, we can wrap up the next Debian
+Edu/Skolelinux release too.  The
+<a href="http://lists.debian.org/debian-edu/2013/04/msg00132.html">first
+alpha release</a> went out last week, and the next should soon
+follow.<p>
