EduGeek Joomla 2.5

[speckytecky]

We have a hugely useful Thread covering one of my EduGeek heroes Sysman_MKs EduGeek Joomla 1.5 package but now Joomla is well established in 2.5 and another of my EuuGeek heroes Steve Hill is busy working on a EduGeek version I was wondering if we could have a dedicated Topic.

I was toying with going WordPress but have decided to stick with Joomla as I at least have an inkling of what it's about for my next site for my school. One question I'd like to kick about is what would be useful to include on the package upload as add ons - Akeeba etc I was thinking. That said it's a useless add on for me currently as the C-Panel version SWGfL provide with theire not cheap hosting is cut down and won't allow many functions like Kickstart to run so I'm probably looking at alternate hosting when - probably at the speed I move at in 5 years time my new site goes live!!
