Hello,
I think it would be very helpful and an important milestone to
push a first "easy" Debian Junior Live System into Debian
experimental.
* We can use the BTS to send bugs and wishlists
* We have all tools / processes of Debian's packaging system
I have created two new repositories in the debian-jr-team on
salsa [1].
# debian-junior-desktop
The idea of the Debian Junior Desktop project [2] is to put all
files / scripts / docs / applications which are requited to
provide a Desktop for our kids. Currently it's based on IceWM
Windows Manager [3]. I have added
Depends: ${misc:Depends}, junior-config, icewm
to the control file.
There is not much in the package, yet.

-rw-r--r-- root/root 442 2021-12-25 14:16 ./usr/share/doc/debian-junior-desktop/copyright
----------------------------------------------------------------
I'm sure we will have more ideas which should be added to the
Desktop environment.
# debian-junior-live-system
The second package is the Debian Junior Live System [4]. This
package contains the files which are required to build the live
system via live-build [5]. With those files everybody can build
an own live system.

----------------------------------------------------------------
With the commands lb config and lb build is it possible to build
the Debian Junior Live System.
# Ready for the milestone?
I think it looks nice and I should create the ITPs in wnpp.

# Next steps
As soon as debian-junior-desktop is in Debian, we can remove some
files from the live system and use it from the desktop env.
Step-by-step we can improve the desktop and the live system. We
should also check what we can do with the blends user roles [6].
