Recently I discovered a new kind of Linux: DoudouLinux. It is not a new distribution, but a Debian is a tailor-made for children, the designer Jean-Michael says that is usable by children two years old. And in fact by starting this live meta-distro you get a rich and colorful menu from which childrens can choose […]
I’ve received an announcement from Jean-Michel Philippe and I gladly publish it:
The whole team is very glad to inform you that DoudouLinux 2.0 Hyperborea is now officially out .
After 2 years of development, this new major version is providing many great new features with fully redesigned advanced activities, new graphics, new applications, a new installer, etc. Available in 43 languages, this release is nearly occurring 3 years after the birth of our project in 2010, which shows the interest our project has gained all around the world.
As usual you can give it a try from:

But DoudouLinux is not just a CD/DVD of educative stuffs for children.
DoudouLinux is now a vast project on its own. We have published with version 2.0 a manifesto that defines the philosophy and the ethics of our project: we want our children be able to fully master the digital world they are going to live in, instead of undergoing it.As a result we now feel very concerned about user privacy, especially when it comes to children.
Let’s see some detail of this nice project
