Skolelinux is a great Server distribution for schools and it will become part of debian-edu, AFAIK. They are working on a Skole-Knoppix too. http://www.skolelinux.no/ http://www.skolelinux.de/
We started promoting skolelinux in Wilhelmshaven, 200km SE of Hamburg. And we are getting a great response from schools out of our region. I wrote a single line in a newspaper artikel, talking about that we will establish a skolelinux test- and training center. And my phone got hot the next days. We will migrate two schools in the next weeks, one in Eden (at the coastal border of germany and the nederlands) and at Jever (5kmW of Wilhelmshaven). Plus two skolelinux presentations in Schortens, this will be for a big "Parit�tischer Wohlfahrtsverband, Arbeiter Wohlfahrt" which is a big welfare organisation, 2500Employees in >70 sites, which is interested in skolelinux and the GNOME acessibillity Desktop. They might use skolelinux in their 40 retirement homes and in their 20 handicapped persons workshops (Behinderten Werkst�tten). I think it's a better solution than SuSE's new OpenSchoolServer who will be launched 2004. As we say in Germany, "Skolelinux ist genial" :o) Bye Thomas
