Trying to respond to kirby's recent post about edubuntu - looking for the debian distribution of VPython which can be apt-got, I cone accidentally across this. """ O2S is a proposed software architecture for automatic, dynamic assembly of software components for realization of user-specified goals. """ http://o2s.csail.mit.edu/system.html What makes it particularly, amazingly interesting is the fact that Python *and* VPython *and* pygame and just a few other packages seem to be at the core of the system: http://o2s.csail.mit.edu/o2s-wiki/InstallSoftware Boy this looks interesting, edu-sig-wise. Will be investigating more thoroughly ASAP. Art
