RFS: schooltool

[Brian Sutherland <jinty@web.de>]

I am posting this here as well as debian mentors because I believe that
this package would be of great interest to this list.

In co-operation with the schooltool[1] project, I have re-packaged the
schoolbell-0.7 release. It is now lintian clean.

Schoolbell is the first public release and is focused on calendaring via
a web interface. It is intended to be tested. The rest of the
schooltool packages will follow.

I am looking for a sponsor, or failing that, a DD who would take over and
maintain the packages him/herself (They would have to introduce
themselves to upstream first).

I am also interested in any requirements for a package to work well with
Debian Edu?

The packages are available here:

More Information (from the website):

We hope that SchoolTool will eventually take care of all aspects of
school administration. We will address basic school operational
functions such as student registration, attendance records, student
performance measurement, timetable creation and calendaring,
society/club/team membership management, and report writing. In later
versions we hope to expand SchoolTool to address school financial
management, specialised modules for library and cafeteria management,
communication between local authorities and schools as well as
inter-school information sharing. We will also make it possible to link
SchoolTool to your school web portal. Once we have a core useable
application we will drive development based on feedback from the school
user community.
