Eric Harrison, any chance we can get an official comment on the state of things?

I'm sure you're a busy guy, and I very much appreciate the years of work you've put into the project.

I've been using K12LTSP for a several years, but had to switch to edubuntu this past summer. I'd switch back to fedora in a heartbeat if it had solid LTSP5 support.

I'm using K12LTSP at the moment, but have also been a Skolelinux user for years. What is it about edubuntu/K12LTSP that would make you "switch back to fedora in a heartbeat if it (K12LTSP) had solid LTSP5 support"?

I think the hope is that eventually K12LTSP will become part of the Fedora project. Most of the recent development of LTSP has been happening on Ubuntu/Edubuntu, in part because Canonical is sponsoring someone to do so (Oliver Grawert) and has been very supportive of LTSP. LTSP 5 is a big step in the direction of making it easier to incorporate LTSP into a distro's repositories, but it's not like other applications--that is, it's much more complicated--and while it's got a ways to go, it's getting there. Warren Togami, who founded the Fedora project and I believe now works for Red Hat, was present at an LTSP hackfest this past fall, but I don't know if there's any formal participation by Fedora in LTSP (yet).

I was wondering if there is a roadmap or something similar for the K12LTSP? I ask mainly because K12LTSP is at version 6 based upon Fedora 6, while Fedora is up to 8 and the k12ltsp.org web site doesn't seem to show information regarding newer versions.
