Contributed by devil on Nov 24, 2009 - 12:34 PM | 3036 reads
sidux e.V. is pleased to present to you today a DVD version of Seminarix based on sidux. This is an educational project that merges Seminarix with the base of sidux. Seminarix aims at introducing educators as well as pupils to free and open software to make computer training in schools less costly and more effective. The project was initiated in March 2007 by Wolf-Dieter Zimmermann, who works in the education of students working for a teaching diploma. First based upon Kubuntu, sidux e.V. started to port it to sidux with the help of educators and interested users. With sidux as a powerfull free and open Linux distribution the Seminarix project now has a fast, easy to maintain and always current base.
