Yes, this sounds like a good idea. Has anyone mentioned using the
syllabus in schools as well, my kids seem to be the only
ones at their school that have heard of KDE. AN easy set-up guide would
be a good start with some tips for handling
of devices and so on (I always do things the hard way I think).
