and, as asked by Tom Hoffman a link between this system (I suppose
cerebrum as it will reexport data to ldap) and schooltool/schoolbell would
be very interesting.

OK. I have now understood.
Thank you very much
I probably won't have the opportunity to come to either the ubuntu
developpers' meeting in January in Spain, nor to the Skolelinux
developpers's meeting at the end of January in Oslo, but it could be very
interesting if respective main developpers of both could meet in person at
these event .. then post a summary of the discussions and decisions, amd
maybe also come to Brussels to Fosdem were many other free software
developpers will gather (see http://fosdem.org) at the end of February.
I am not going to reorganize a full meeting like last year Freeedem
dedicated to education, but with your help and support, I would very much
like to coordinate some activities around these these themes
Debian-edu/skolelinux/ubuntu/schooltool within Fosdem if possible (at
least on the sunday, as I am busy already on the Saturday but not at Fosdem)
Regards,
Nicolas
