Well, In fact I am assistant teacher in a high school and I have been
in contact with a variety of people with different level. All of them
find some problems with the variety existing in linux (many desktops,
many software with unsuel names xmms for example) . I aim to make
something  that is really simple and that make the migration to fedora
easier than ever.

I don't know how hard is this task but I will try to make it hoping
that it will find some success
