What we really need is ads/actions targeted on particular needs. UK
education is bombarded by advertising so it needs focus on perceived
audience needs. For example, a quote form the UK national curriculum
showing how making software comparisons by students are needed to reach the higher levels then a solution - download OOo (or send them a CD) and
say this is a free resource to do the job just install on your network
alongside MSO and give the students an assignment to make some
comparisons. Of course this would only work in the UK. There are 3500
high schools so sending a CD to each one would probably only cost about 5 or 6k if we could drum up volunteers and probably OSA, Schoolforge and
Lugs would help such a project. Sending them a flyer with the download
address would be less expensive. I could design such a flyer targeted on
UK education but it would probably not be appropriate in other
countries.

No reason not to focus on specific regions, especially if we are building for future grass-roots efforts. So, let's do it, and if it doesn't work for this particular quarter, we can likely use it some other time. I think we really need to act, especially now.
