Hello,

I'd like to know whether it makes sense to continue maintaining and producing the Fedora Python Classroom Lab.
Do any schools use this?  Possibly an edition for use in a school/university computer lab or internet cafe may be more useful, with less focus on Python and better support for thin clients may be more helpful.

It has problems:

 - no issue tracker, I don't even know if there are users with issues
   - there has simple been close to zero feedback, maybe nobody uses this?

 - the website is horribly outdated: https://pagure.io/fedora-websites/issue/962

 - some Fedora versions weren't built:
   - I wasn't notified when F29 wasn't built
   - there was no way to get it fixed ex-post
   - https://pagure.io/releng/issue/7922

 - Docker is broken
   - one of the main ideas was to produce a Docker image
   - the Docker instructions on the download page [4] are not working
   - not even when replaced with podman
   - I have no idea how to fix it
   - I know no way to upload to official dockerhub [5]

 - Vagrant experience is not good enough
   - one of the main ideas was to produce a Vagrant box/image
   - I know no way to upload to official Vagrant thing [6]
   - downloading the box manually is tedious


The absolute lack of feedback makes is hard to dedicate time to actually persuade and fix the problems.
