Hi,

after giving a talk on FREEDUC CD locally we have some more interest
from local education establishments, most of whom had some Linux in
house already (mainly servers or firewalls).

One comment was we need to take it "political" to the relevant
authorities, as there is money to be saved, and interoperability to be
achieved. From someone well positioned to start such a campaign.

I agree, but how is the AFFS Education campaign going? Who is our
contact again...

Anyone had any feedback from the political bodies governing schools on
what they like, dislike, and anyone done any speeches or presentations
to such groups.

Early days, but I'd like to be prepared to give a presentation on more
administrative aspects, where I can discuss example deployments, give
references to appropriate sites etc, potential cost savings, without
just waving empty figures around (not that the emptiness of figures ever
stopped a salesman before IME).

 Simon
