in such cases http://portableapps.com/ and http://www.portablepython.com/ could help or maybe even some LiveCD/LiveUSB On Fri, Apr 30, 2010 at 10:19 AM, Jan Ulrich Hasecke <juhasecke@googlemail.com> wrote:
Hi,
since three years I am guiding a Python voluntary workgroup in a school and we are suffering from a badly organized IT environment (a rigidly restricted Windows setting).
Most of all we miss a decent VCS as Mercurial or Bazaar. In the official IT classes they never used a VCS so it was never installed.
While thinking about this I discovered that some other things are missing. For eg. we cannot install a web framework due to the strange restrictions. They do not have Zotero installed. For students the FF-plugin Zotero would be a great tool to make bibliographies.
Does anyone yet compiled a list of things which may not be missing in a perfect IT environment in a school? Perhaps I can lobby some teachers to improve their environment.
juh
