Education project needs you

Enable/Disable Native FilePicker in preferences

Author : Ben Bois

Websites : lamouette (French) and pro-portfolio

There is a project (not much activity since a while), exactly in incubator projects who has been created two years ago.

Namely : Education project

Discussing with Louis Suarez-Potts, I proposed him some ideas to make it grow, and suggestions, like create a real bridge between OpenOffice.org development, and Education.

It's mainly question to welcome, help and involve students, professors from High Schools and/or Universities, but not only.

So much things have to be done, that everybody is welcome

Currently, this is a big work in progress, and if you want to know more, please subscribe to dev@education.openoffice.org mailing list

Louis was so enjoyed, that he proposed me to Co-Lead the project :)

BTW, what do you think about the logo Ben did ? Could be a neat logo for Education site, no ?

... and see you soon !!
