• Debian Jr. re-launch

    From Stefan Kropp@21:1/5 to All on Fri Dec 10 20:50:01 2021
    Hello Junior-Users / -Developers,

    I would like to re-launch Debian Jr. and take leadership [1] of the
    project. This project is not a project which should be in status inactive.

    My name is Stefan. I'm not a DD, but I'm a developer. I'm a Debian User
    since Woody has been released.

    I have started to check the current status of the project and started to clean-up the wiki pages [2].

    I would like to organize the project's related topics in "stages" and
    try to use some structures which will help to keep this controlled,
    documented and have a good communication.

    # Project stage plan

    I put some ideas of stages on the wiki page:

    https://wiki.debian.org/DebianJr#Stage_plan

    * Stage 01 - Re-launch Debian Jr.

    Check current status of the projects. Check if there are some people
    which would like to join the party. Clean-up the wiki pages, build
    project documentation.
    Goal: Re-launch Debian Jr. :)

    * Stage 02 - Debian Junior tasks

    Check the debian junior tasks. Clean-up tasks. Fix issues, if required.
    https://blends.debian.org/junior/tasks/
    I've been wondering myself, if tasks grouped by ages would be helpful. I
    may start a dedicated discussion of this topic later. First we should
    clean-up existing tasks.
    Goal: Updated tasks

    * Stage 03 - Live-CD

    I would like to have a Debian Jr. Live-CD and include the Debian Jr.
    into the Debian Installer. This stage depends on Stage 02.
    Also see #825185 [3]
    Goal: Let people use Debian Jr. as easy as possible

    * Stage 04 - Build a Debian Jr. desktop environment

    Setup a easy Desktop environment which can be used by juniors and
    includes in a Live-CD.
    Goal: Well defined Use Interface for kids

    # Development

    ## WWW Browser

    Few month back, I did some *very quick* development to build an easy
    browser based on webkit2gtk. Maybe it would be nice to build a browser with
    a white list of urls which can be used by the users.
    Maybe Stage 05?! :)

    * https://wiki.debian.org/DebianEdu/
    * https://www.debian.org/devel/debian-desktop/
    * Debian Installer / Live-Team

    This was just a small "kick-off" / "Say hello". I need to get familiar with some Debian process. As soon as I have news, I will keep you up-to-date.

    If you have question, ideas, feedback, doubts, feel free to let me know.

    I really welcome your initiative.

    I would really love if some more people would join your relaunch.
    However, I hope you are prepared to go some time alone in case nobody
    else will follow your first call for contribution.

    I can provide technical help with this task.

    If you ask me I would stick for the moment to existing browsers.
