Hello, I wrote the following points on how Free software supports schools: http://gnuosphere.wordpress.com/2010/01/29/how-free-software-supports-schools/ Any feedback would be appreciated. Could anything be added to this list? Are there any errors? Also, my blog gets minimal traffic so it might be useful to put this somewhere else on the web. But if so, where? I would also like to write a FAQ related to Free software in schools. I've been asked many questions over the years but haven't compiled these along with appropriate responses. For example, I'm often asked if teaching Free software in schools puts students at a disadvantage since the "real world" uses Microsoft products. Perhaps a comprehensive document/webpage outlining reasons and addressing common questions (which are often based on misconceptions) could serve useful. If anyone knows of a FAQ-like document on the web, I'd appreciate the URL. Thanks, Peter Rock. -- Parin Sharma http://twitter.com/FOSSmaniac -- l...@iitd - http://tinyurl.com/ycueutm To unsubscribe, reply using "remove me" as the subject.
