List of Educative Software: Linuxsignpost + X
Dear List,
Recently Knut, Josè and others announced a cooperation of Debian-Edu and
LinEx. One chance I see here, is further improvement of the workstation
profile, especially by adding more educative applications and
usability.
At the moment we have the Linuxsignpost project [1]. Its design is
marvellous, but the project is kind of stalled. It uses a MySQL data
base + some homebrewn PHP frontend.
Additionally, we started a wiki table of free educative applications
[2]. But this has proven quite uncomfortable, personally, I am
convinced we need some relational database that can easily be extended.
As my knowledge of PHP+MySQL is very basical, I'd go for a sqlite
solution (OOo or knoda) - but maybe there is other people feeling the
urge of such a project? I read, that GAMBAS II has got an interface for
MySQL as well. Does the LinEx project use a database to collect
informations about educational software?
What is your suggestions? Is there anybody else interested in such a
data base, maybe based on [1]?
Thank you
Regards
Ralf
