Canonical does not have an official one so it kind of depends on what
you mean by official. I would consider it official like the
Documentation work if the community supports it. perhaps with the ok
from the edubuntu council?</div></blockquote><div>What I mean by this is not necessarily a wiki page but a page like the download page that says, 'once you've downloaded and converted to an install DVD, this is how you install it. This is very important I feel. <br>

At this point I'd recommend the official ubuntu wiki as I think there
is more activity there and anyone searching there will find a link to
it. I don't think there is cross wiki search functionality at this
point. So maybe the bulk of it on the Ubuntu wiki and a page on the
edubuntu wiki so folks can find it in a search there.</div></blockquote><div>Thanks for this direction. Until I hear otherwise I'll be planning on adding to the Ubuntu wiki. <br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">

Not sure there is a long term vision for edubuntu at the moment. <span><span> :-( </span></span>It's being driven by

and they have done an outstanding job to keep
the project moving forward. Other than blueprints for the next cycle I
would love to see and help work on a long term vision.</div></blockquote><div> </div><div>I know there is a mission statement though I just did a google search "Edubuntu mission" and "Mission of edubuntu" and on neither first 20 hits was a mission statement for Edubuntu. Where is it? I know it exists.<br>
<br>The good thing about a mission statement is it tells one why one is marching. However, a vision statement is different. The vision tells one what we will approach if our community marches successfully. Really, a vision guides us in the murky waters of life. I don't recall seeing a vision statement for edubuntu, but then again, I'm almost 50 so may well have forgotten having seen it... Please direct me to a living or otherwise wiki page telling the vision of our community.<br>
<br>I can (and will) start making wiki pages like: <a href="http://wiki.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/vision">wiki.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/vision</a> if someone doesn't soon educate me on a good way to do it or at least a web page that provides naming guidelines. On that note, I'm about to make a simple wiki page: <a href="http://wiki.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/installlucid">wiki.ubuntu.com/edubuntu/installlucid</a> unless I get some other direction.<br>

FYI: I've been working on an Edubuntu course in Moodle for the Kids on
computers project. They asked about maybe adding an LTSP and
networking section to it. You can find the current work in progress

Which of the 3 programs would be most user friendly for my students to annotate a digital photograph--for example they take a picture of a flower and want to clearly label the parts, gimp, inkspace, scribus? A tutorial on that would be something my students need...<br>
