Benefit to Sugar
Promotes our already-existing technical flexibility to customize Soas-v4 for Deployments and individuals.
- add/delete desired applications to standard set on .iso
- Targeted uses:
- Multiple Language versions (Including EU Languages?)
- e-book reader
- Older students
- Games
- Shared kickstart files e-mailed to SOAS and posted to wiki allow others to learn how to make a .ks file and try various remixes.
- Posted links to a Catalog of prebuilt remix.iso's, with a description of their use and contents, allows less skilled users to use them.
Scope
The technical ability to create remixes has worked for a long time.
- all entries labled xxxx-remix were built using these instructions
