For what it is worth, it is now nearly a year since I tracked down every key Canonical employee I could find at Linuxworld 2008, both at the conference and at after-hours events, to communicate two messages: the state of Edubuntu and its User community was having an *adverse* *impact* on the adoption of gnu/linux in education, particularly in thin-client environments,and that two people should be hired - Gavin and Asmo. As Ace observed, he actually thought Gavin worked for Canonical. I used to think so, too. Asmo has been instrumental at greeting and inspiring new users and help-seekers on this list, and he likes Frank Zappa.
Some of the Canonical staff who received my message last year are on this list. I hope that someone is listening. Oh, and for the record, Most Schools Block IRC Making it an Impossible Communication Venue for Teachers Needing Support.
