I'm already in the queue. My first priority at the moment is
debian-installer.

Yes.

Possibly, depends on amount spare time.

No. I'm not very good at formulating documentation, and believe it is
better to leave it at someone who excel in that area.

None, actually. I'm involved in the Skolelinux project to help
schools being able to stop wasting money on proprietary software, and
instead teach the pupils that it is ok to share, tinker, learn and
build on the work of other, instead of being called a software pirate
when doing those things.

I expect DebianEdu to be a place where all the education-related
projects in Debian can share our experiences, and make sure we avoid
duplicated work when possible.

I'm the technical coordinator and architect for the Skolelinux
project. That means I take all highlevel technical decisions, and
keep track of what the other developers are doing on the technical
side. We are organized in four groups; technical, translation,
pedagogical and project promotion.

Later. :-)
BTW: The Skolelinux project are planning a development conference /
meeting at the end of this month/start of the next. The available
dates are the weekends starting 09-27, 10-04 and 10-11. It would be
very nice if any of you could join us. Let me know if you would
like to join, and which weekends will work for you. Funding is open
for discussion.
