I take it you're working in Kerala then? Which of course is renowned for its success at bringing literacy and education to all. DebianEdu seems like a logical next step ;-) As a matter of fact, I'm planning to go to southern India in a couple of weeks. Though I will be mainly in Bangalore and Andhra Pradesh, it would be interesting to make a brief detour to Kerela to see the work you're doing there (along with some of famed natural beauty, of course). Are you aware of similar efforts in AP or Karnataka, i.e. FOSS for Telugu and Kannada education etc.? > We wish to cooperate with other groups with the same > aim.

I think that sounds terrific. Maybe you (or some artist you know) will come up with a submission for Skolelinux mascot as well! Knut Staring
