[ubuntu-art] Edubuntu Spec - Take Two

[j_baer]

Thorsten, Jonathan, All:

The following is my attempt at the Edubuntu spec.  :-)



> Introduction
> 
> Edubuntu desires to enhance Ubuntu with the best open source educational
> software available and to provide a solution which is easy to install and
> maintain.
> 
> The current wallpaper is two (2) releases old and is in need of something
> fresh and new. The successful candidate may be used to inspire the
> remaining Edubuntu branding.
> 
> Roles
>   * Students
>   * Teachers
> 
> Desired message to Students
>   Edubuntu is:
>     * Fun
>     * Empowering
>     * Important
>     * Open
>     * A valuable experience
> 
>   Metaphors and associations:
>     * Games
>     * Exploration
>     * Pencil
>     * Water colors
>     * Space
>     * Energy
> 
> Desired message to Teachers
>   Edubuntu is:
>     * Stable, reliable
>     * Secure
>     * Free of charge
>     * Open the mind to new ideas
>     * Inspire and motivate
>     * Improve academic performance
>     * Improve personal growth
>     * Satisfy the need for a sophisticated and rewarding learning
> experience
> 
>   Metaphors and associations:
>     * Classroom
>     * Books
>     * Chalkboard
>     * Science
>     * Poem
>     * Music
>     * Math
>     * Teaching
>     * Learning
>     * Community
> 
> Palette
> 
> The Edubuntu palette is bold and rich and the community wishes to continue
> the tradition by using colors which are vibrant yet pleasing to the eye.
> 
> The wallpaper must blend with and support desktop panels, windows and
> icons (as far as they appear on the desktop). The selection of colors must
> support the impression of confidence, lightness, and performance, without
> becoming a distraction in day-to-day use. Aside of this, there is no
> predefined, required palette for the wallpaper.
> 
> Constraints
> ... ( no change )
> 
> Workflow
> ... ( no change )
> 
> ToDo
> ... ( same as Xubuntu )
> 
> 

Feel free to change as desired.

John
