We are happy and proud to release the 25.10 version of Edubuntu for your continued enjoyment and learning. This release includes GNOME 49. Geary has been replaced with Thunderbird which is used in Ubuntu as a feature-complete email, calendar, and contacts suite. The disadvantage is that it doesn't integrate well with the GNOME desktop via GNOME Online Accounts; however, during testing, we ran into problems with the latest versions of Geary and Evolution when it came to Microsoft 365 accounts, which are in use in a great deal of schools. GNOME Music has been replaced with Rhythmbox. This is because GNOME Music has ceased development. This release includes some additional educational games. We worked with Jonny Eickmeyer, our lead student advisor, to research games that already existed within our repository, and added them to the default installation! You may even notice gm-assistant has been added. This is an application to assist, for example, 'Dungeons & Dragons' dungeon masters with facilitating a game.
