...for every child. I still don't know if they will be using GNOME or something lighter like XFce, but i will let the list know as soon as i have some info. If they do use GNOME this would be huge, cause all of the schools we ll be using only Ubuntu and GNOME. Now, there are still some leftovers from the last deployment of Ubuntu and Edubuntu in the schools[1], cause unfortunately most of them got deleted and replaced with pirated versions of Windows cause the government didn't care about it back then. But it seems that this time they are totally aware and they are pushing Microsoft away from the Primary education system for good.
