SysGobEx is the name of the general IT strategic plan (2011-2015) of the
Government of Extremadura. Within that plan, LinGobEx is the name of the
Linux migration project and also the name of the installed distribution.

As of today, some users have already been migrated to a modified version
of SESLinex, the Debian-based distribution used in the Health System of
Extremadura (actually a cloned installation of Debian, rather than a
complete distribution).

The final installed version of LinGobEx will actually be Debian Wheezy
with some custom packages on top of it (for configuration and themes
customization, mostly).

Best regards,
