SchoolTool 2.1 Lands in the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Universe

 

Last November, the SchoolTool development team released SchoolTool
2.0, a complete re-thinking of the student information system,
emphasizing clarity and efficiency.  Schools and service providers
around the world quickly embraced these improvements.

Today, SchoolTool 2.1 brings these changes and further refinements to
users of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise Pangolin) with one-step
installation through the Ubuntu Software Center.

SchoolTool 2.1 is primarily a stability and bugfix release, with the
following new features:

* ID photos for people.
* Printable photo ID templates.
* Improved person search.
* Standard sets of gradebook activites for courses.
* Updated translations.

SchoolTool 2.1 packages for selected earlier versions of Ubuntu will
be released to SchoolTool's Launchpad package archives in coming
weeks.

this release.

And to Mark Shuttleworth for his generous support.
