Yes.

That's true. Therefore the architecture, a rewritten user-admin (which
has to be debugged and extensively tested) and a reconfigured LTSP
with as little as possible to write. We also have made a course which
explain the most important configuration step-by-step.

It's only admin who can administrate the system. Our plan is that
students and teachers can change their own password. Teacher with
class-responsibilities can change printer quotas with web-min (its
implemented, but not integrated with the new user-admin).

It's important in short term to concentrate all effort to fix the bugs
in the new user-admin-system. We will also translate the course-
documentation to English after some extensive rewriting (after 1 year
use in Norwegian schools).
