I have finally found a school principal who is
interested in a quick demonstration of Linux.
She understands that it against CBE Policy and
that she cannot impliment it immediately in her school.
I would like to prepare a 1 page persuasive essay
on why it is worth her spending 1-2 hours for a 'CLUG meeting on steroids'
where she can see a few samplings on what Linux can offer to the
school.
Assuming this is done well, I believe that she
can help to drive it from inside CBE. A principal would certainly have
more 'pull' than a bunch of geeks chanting "Linux rules".
Also, if this has been done before (especially
successfully), I'd like to learn more about it. Links
appreciated.
I'd also be interested in suggestions and/or
volunteers. I'll write the paper myself, but I could use some additional
hands if/when it came time to actually present something.
Thanks
Kev.
