A Charitable organization is funding the development of infrastructure in a rural school. I have volunteered for setting-up a computer-education lab using which other volunteers (including me) will be teaching school children of various standards and also village adults.
I've ordered many net-tops already, but I'm confused about the OS. Ubuntu doesn't seem right. It can be too intimidating for beginners.
One option is to pinpoint the curricula and customize gentoo. What do you suggest?
Edit:
Many of the students will be learning basic programming for automating day to day stuff, that's why posted here.
