MintRefresh
How difficult/easy would it be to package the EDUbuntu apps into a Mint distro? I install Mint 90% of the time and usually add the edubuntu packages. TIA

Re: MintEDU
If any of the Edubuntu applications you want depend on using Gnome 3 or Unity, I expect difficulties as Mint has forked Gnome 2 to use their own styles
--although the promise is compatibility over time
Gnome 3 dust has to settle for awhile before that might be 100% true..
Now from the internet hits, it seems that EdUbuntu 11x is Gnome 2 based, so that set is likely Ok
Edubuntu is Alpha test for now version 12 forwards..

- I think this is probably a true statement
- However I also expect that may take a while, so for now it looks like it should be OK, at least if you stick with Mint 11x, Ubtuntu (EDubuntu 11x)
Edubuntu is Alpha test for now version 12 forwards..

- The Unity interface received lots of improvements, configuration settings, Nautilus quicklist support, maximized windows improvements, and quicklist items accessible with one right click.
- The GNOME components have been updated to latest stable 3.2.2 version, the LightDM login manager has now support for theming, and the desktop wallpapers list has four rows.

- matches Gnome version with Ubuntu 12x
Re: MintEDU
Thanks. All I really need are the educational programs & games, which appear to be just bundles of various programs, not the full of the edubuntu system.
