Hi Belinda This is absolutely amazing! This is probably the best marketing tool we have for Edubuntu, i.e. the existing footprint of Edubuntu! If we add a page to the Edubuntu site showing a world map with an indication of the number/list of schools running Edubuntu in each country, it will go a looooong way to help eliminate schools biggest fears around using Edubuntu... - "Is it relevant?" - "Can it do the job?" - etc. The site should not just be list of features and howto's but it should show schools that Edubuntu is a "force" backed by hundrends of companies, schools and even countries! More than anything, I think that this will help us "sell" it!
