Custom Spin for DOCUMENT FREEDOM DAY
After a successful DFD08, the community is gathering for a second time to celebrate a global day for document liberation. Teams across the planet will join their efforts on 25th of March and send a strong message of Document Freedom and Open Standards.
The main page for the event is http://www.documentfreedom.org . This page is mainly for developing a kick start file for custom spins to be used by different teams.
The custom spin should include destop oriented packages (updated to stable Fedora10), all Open Office stuff with good collection of templates, Dictonaries, Scribus, GIMP, Koffice, Gnumeric, Docbook, Lua, Quanta etc (latest stable), TexLive and IDEs. It also makes sense to include advocacy related documentation, Whitepapers, Technical reports, Tutorials and more.
One reference for kick start files is this page.
Using Kick Start Files
Use 'revisor' for making your custom spin. You can add or delete packages given in the kickstart file at a later stage too. You need a fast enough broadband connection and hopefully will be able to find fast mirrors.
