this has happened, though the release announcement is not done yet.

Giorgio, can we use this as quote for the announcement:

Giorgio Pioda, who is using Debian Edu in schools in Italy (where exactly? in 
what function) says: "I can report that I'm on production with Debian Edu 
Wheezy since mid august and it works rock solid, we are using it every day."

this still needs to happen and I wont be able to finish before (UTC) midnight 
today. Help with the announcement is still very welcome, look for FIXMEs in 
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/ReleaseNotes/Wheezy

> thursday UTC morning: upload d-e-doc with updated translations

David said he would do this today, we still lack updates for Danish and 
Italian though. (But those could also be added a week after the release via a 
regular update.)

will do that tonite.

> thursday: copy those final isos away, do final tests of them
> friday: more testing and translations
> saturday: announce Debian Edu Wheezy 7.1+edu0 \o/

These are still on track :)

 
cheers,
