I agree. In addition, please conduct a study of LGUs into FOSS and CICT's efforts in the education sector. Kaloy - your boss ( :-) ) should have this for his privilege speech on the proposed bill or his amulet against potential adversaries at the sessions.
My NGO is using Kubuntu Dapper. But I'd go for Bayanihan Linux for the proposed bill.

i'm a legislative staff of a partylist congressman in
the house of representatives. we are in the process of
drafting a bill on open source, compelling the gov't
to adopt open source software, among others.
Commendableas a measure of goodwill, we will be migrating to a
linux distro this month until august 2006. we're
considering ubuntu, bayanihan and redhat, though i'm
more familiar with redhat.
i'm soliciting opinions, suggestions/recommendations
on the proposed bill, on the linux distros to use and
anything that you want us to consider.
On the proposed bill, try to look for places which have adopted FOSS or even just those which adopted the open document format... I guess from there you'll get some lead. I think Brazil, Paris, France, and Munich, Germany are good places to start. Studying the GPL would also help.

On the distro, I am bias. I use Ubuntu Dapper but I would also love to see and use a Debian-based Bayanihan.
