Well, I did finish reading over the Google Docs (Thanks Christian, et.
al.), and ... could someone please confirm if I'm presuming correctly:
o That the present operating system distribution for schools (school
lab) is built/based upon Lubuntu LTS 14.04.x (where ideally that would
be the most current LTS in that series)
o Also that we wouldn't jump from 14.04[.x] to 16.04[.x] LTS series
until such had been sufficiently built/"proven"/tested for schools
(/ school lab(s)) - including any custom ISOs we'd need, updates to
build/PXE server, etc.
o That given current hardware in school lab(s), present Partimus minimum
standards on computer donations, etc., time for
lab/teachers/curriculum to adjust, etc., we are and would continue to
be using i386 (and not amd64) Lubuntu LTS 14.04[.x] distribution
through at least end of June 2016.
Let me know if my presumptions on that are correct. Also let me know if
I should update the relevant Google Docs on that (e.g. we have some
which currently include, in part, stuff like ... "ubuntu.com/10.04/" ...
"12.04" ..., etc.
