Great, thanks for posting this.  Will you be giving a kdeedu 
presentation at Akademy or LinuxTag?

Well, I guess you already know about kstars, but be sure to mention our 
extremely robust telescope and camera control features that Jasem and 
others have been hard at work on.  Other recent developments include the 
Observing List tool, and a Custom Catalog tool that actually works.

There's also been some work recently on making the child-focused apps 
more friendly to use for children, and to making sure these features are 
widely available to edu developers.  Maybe someone who's been involved 
with this could expand on it for Carsten?

have fun,
Jason
