+
+<p><strong>New features for Debian Edu 7.1+edu0~alpha3 released

+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>
+
+<p><strong>Software updates</strong></p>
+<ul>
+  <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><strong>Other changes</strong></p>
+<ul>
+  <li>Updated artwork matching http://wiki.debian.org/DebianArt/Themes/Joy
+  <li>Multi-arch i386/amd64 USB stick ISO available.</li>
+  <li>Got rid of ispell/wordlist related debconf questions that showed
+    up for some language options.</li>
+  <li>Switched to using http.debian.net as APT source by default.</li>
+  <li>Fixed proxy configuration on Main Server installations.</li>
+  <li>Changed LTSP setup to ask dpkg to use force-unsafe-io the same way
+    d-i is doing it.</li>
+  <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
+    script setup-ad-client to hook a Roaming Workstation up to a
+    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>
+  <li>Update system to handle hardware quirks (debian-edu-hwsetup).</li>
+  <li>Corrected PXE installation setup to properly pass selected desktop
+    and keymap settings to PXE installation clients.</li>
+  <li>LTSP diskless workstations use sshfs by default, allowing them to
+    work without adding them to DNS and NIS netgroups for NFS access.</li>
+</ul>
+<p><strong>Known issues</strong></p>
+<ul>
+  <li>No mass import of user account data in GOsa (ldif or csv)
+    available yet (698840).</li>
+  <li>Artwork not enabled for all desktops.</li>
