msgid "Welcome to the world of Edubuntu, a Linux distribution designed for schools and other educational environments. Built on the popular Ubuntu, it is a complete operating system that includes an office suite, web browser, many educational applications, and much more. Edubuntu is designed to allow a teacher or network administrator to be able to set up a complete classroom quickly and easily. Edubuntu is committed to the principles of free and open source software, which means it is free of charge and will always remain that way. Open Source software aims to preserve the freedom to use, copy and change the software and to distribute those changes. This means Edubuntu can offer higher quality software at no cost, while allowing everyone to modify Edubuntu to fit the exact needs of their particular environment."

msgid "Edubuntu is comprised of several key technologies, one of which is the Linux Terminal Server Project (LTSP), which allows you to boot thin clients from an Edubuntu LTSP server. For educational environments, LTSP lowers hardware costs by enabling the use of older machines as thin clients, as well as reduced administration overhead by having only to install and maintain the software on the server. When a workstation fails, it can simply be replaced without data loss or reinstallation of the operating system."

msgid "Any good educational platform should provide applications specifically for its target audience, and Edubuntu is no exception. For the younger crowd, just starting out with computers, Gcompris offers a fantastic early learning environment. For slightly older pupils, there is a number of games and activities from the Tux4Kids and KDEEdu projects, and for those in high school and older, there is a full office suite as well as applications for instant messaging, graphics, sound and video. And that is just by default! Edubuntu also includes access to thousands of other high quality open source programs at no cost."

205
msgid "<emphasis role=\"strong\">Compatible</emphasis> - Most educational computing uses a mix of Microsoft Windows, Apple OS X and Linux. In this setting, you need an operating system that plays well with others. Edubuntu does that. Edubuntu servers can happily coexist on the same network as other operating systems; OpenOffice.org can open and save Microsoft Office formats, such as Powerpoint, Word and Excel documents, and you can even install Edubuntu and another operating system on the same machine. Need to share files between Edubuntu and other operating system or connect to a remote server? Edubuntu does that too."

#: SchoolAdvocacy/C/school-advocacy.xml:121(para)
209
msgid "<emphasis role=\"strong\">Secure</emphasis> - Security has become a key challenge for educators, and the team behind Edubuntu recognize this. Often, schools lack the specialized IT staff or time to lock down and clean up computers. Edubuntu, being a Linux-based operating system, enjoys the security advantages of its Unix and open source heritages. This translates into higher quality code and fewer threats from spyware and viruses that plague other operating systems. In addition, Edubuntu has a strict, proactive security policy, meaning many common problems such as open ports or misconfigured software are much less of an issue. Finally, Edubuntu is a true multi-user operating system, making it easy to allow users to complete their tasks without compromising the system."
212
#: SchoolAdvocacy/C/school-advocacy.xml:135(para)
213
msgid "<emphasis role=\"strong\">Managable</emphasis> - With teachers and school IT departments deploying and administering an increasingly large number of computers, time to manage individual computers is scarce to non-existant. Edubuntu, by using LTSP thin client technology, makes deployment and management simple and easy. A single server is all that is needed to set up, manage and administrate an entire classroom full of computers. The Edubuntu team also recognizes that not every school's setup is the same. As such, Edubuntu is easy to customize for your unique needs, whether it be a simple rebranding or the addition or removal of programs. Hence Edubuntu can reduce the amount of time you spend administrating your computers."
216
#: SchoolAdvocacy/C/school-advocacy.xml:148(para)
217
msgid "<emphasis role=\"strong\">Cost Effective</emphasis> - With ever-increasing demands on budgets, it seems expensive technology is often last on the list. Edubuntu can help you offer what your students increasingly require from computer technology, without breaking the bank. Edubuntu is and always will be free to acquire, use and modify. Need to set up another machine? Or another hundred? Just install them! No more expensive OS upgrades and licenses, or only having specific programs on some computers. Since Edubuntu is built on Open Source software, schools are welcome to seek whomever they wish to help them support their computers and are not locked into getting help from the vendor. Edubuntu can also help you save hardware costs by allowing you to redeploy older machines as thin clients using LTSP technology."

#: SchoolAdvocacy/C/school-advocacy.xml:162(para)

msgid "<emphasis role=\"strong\">Well Supported</emphasis> - Edubuntu support is available from both the Edubuntu community and the larger Ubuntu community. Many of the authors of the software included in Edubuntu can be contacted directly via mailing lists and IRC channels, including the Edubuntu developers themselves. There are many forms of support available on mailing lists, wiki websites, IRC channels and bug trackers. There is also a special support group for using Edubuntu in schools. Should you want paid support, Canonical, who funds Edubuntu and Ubuntu development, can offer assistance, or you could find a local company who offer similar services. With Edubuntu, the choice is yours."
224

225
msgid "<emphasis role=\"strong\">Built for Education</emphasis> - Above all, what sets Edubuntu apart from other operating systems is its unwavering focus on the educational needs of children all over the world. Edubuntu's motto is \"Linux for Young Human Beings\", and every development decision and application has that goal in mind. Edubuntu comes with translations for many languages and localization features that allow people from all over the world to enjoy their computing experience, as well as acessibility features to help disabled users. The Live CD allows pupils to boot their home computers into Edubuntu and use exactly the same applications that they are using at school. The LTSP server software allows teachers and administrators to create a low-cost computer lab so that students can have access to the best educational opportunities that Edubuntu and the Internet can provide."
