| + | = SOAS Deployement Settings Definition = |
| + | In case of a deploy in a school we could not expect children or teacher to spend a large initial amount of time to set up basic paramenters for SOAS usage (es. LANGUAGE, Timezone, Keyboard). |
| + | Whatever approach would be taken in order to land those initial dsettings in the sticks/images, the very first step is to try ti define with increasing precision what all those settings are, where a deployer or developer could find them and how to operate changes without creating regression errors in the procedure. |
| + | |
| + | In order to support deployements activities the standard SOAS image should allow a limited degree of personalization for basic settings. |
| + | |
| + | This page would be the start of a documentation effort aimed to document those basic interfaces: |
| + | * to ease the personalization efforts from field organizations |
| + | * to avoid regression issues related to personalization done in the wrong places |
| + | |
| + | A basic list of setting to be descripted could be taken from http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/index.php?title=Request_New_Feature |
