After private mail, I retract this.  It was a false impression based
on the Wiki pages for XS and XSCE, which emphasise technical
specifications rather than the functional specifications or features.

(e.g. XS_Features is split out to another page, not on School_server,
and School_server begins heavily with "Linux-based" and "hardware
recommendations".)

(e.g. XS_Community_Edition explains more about the project team,
communications methods, contributors, and history than it does about
the features.)

I suggest that the product and development content be split so this
distinction is clearer.  If I got it so wrong, others may too.

My apologies for the misunderstanding.
