I believe it is _not_ recommended for schools.

And I am not sure what is meant by "security patches is available -
Debian does _not_ yet officially provide security maintainance of sarge!

It is possible, but IMHO only suggested for _developers_ to try out
sarge and sarge-based Skolelinux to weed out any problems in the
process, and get better knowledge of what should be improved before we
officially recommend it for use at schools.


Beware that this mailinglist is aimed at the development of Skolelinux,
not the usage of it. You are off course very welcome to participate even
if not a developer, but beware that things are said here that are not
meant for "users" (teachers and tech staff at schools) of Skolelinux.
