I can at least say that the “Places” menu on the left is back in @PiNetDev Stretch (after being disabled in Raspbian), allowing for easy access to flash drives (and @microbit_edu’s) along with PiNet shared folders. So am *slowly* making progress... @all_about_code @RaspiKidd

Got asked again today "Is PiNet Stretch nearly ready yet?..." Oh how I wish I could say yes, but the move to Stretch has brought with it bug after bug after bug in LTSP, Raspberry Pi Trading packages, PiNet itself and other core software. You fix one and another appears 🙁

I guess it was inevitable eventually... Had first support request come into the @PiNetDev support email address for @Raspberry_Pi PiServer, as opposed to PiNet this morning... Seemed bit confused between the 2 of them. I pointed him towards Pi forums (or just install PiNet 😀 )

What could that be? PiNet printer support perhaps? Configure printer on @PiNetDev server, auto available all Pis! Still lots of work to do
