Very good idea. :)

Very nice looking.  I notice you use a celestia screenshot on the back
of it.  I am really sad to say that this program is no longer
included, as it is missing in Debian/etch (lack of maintainence).  If
the DVD cover is to be used for the etch based version, the version
number would be 3.0, I believe.  It might be a good idea to make the
'Debian Edu' make as prominent as the Skolelinux name, as it is just a
different name for the same thing.

Also, I do not really like the list of contributors on the front.
First of all, it is not a complete list, and it not a correct list for
the sarge based version either.  And I suspect the area is better
spent talking positive about skolelinux/Debian Edu, to save us the
effort of trying to make it accurate.

I would love to have a kdm login screen that made it more obvious that
the installation is a Skolelinux/Debian Edu installation.  I managed
to rip out the Kubuntu logo, but were unable to insert a replacement.
The debian-edu-artwork package got the current images.
