Why not sign up here -- or at least start the ball rolling? I can take schools near Kapitolyo. There's a Kapitolyo HS which I think is Rizal High School Annex. I can be there every day if need be. I can also be at other schools but might not be able to commit to a daily presence.

However, I think what is crucial is the availability of regional or even provincial resource person(s) who are committed to help out schools that are interested in using FOSS. We can advocate all we like but the thing is, once organizations take us seriously, we often lack the warm bodies to provide training and support. I think PLUG can organize a program as well - to complement this CICT initiative, if ever. A PLUG Adopt-A-School project will be a very nice idea. One person can actually handle technical assistance to two or three high school laboratories. They just need someone who can train them and also someone they can call, just in case they have problems. What do you say? Who can sign up for this project so we can match those schools who are seriously considering FOSS as well? We need commitment from both our PLUG volunteer and the schools, of course. PLUG volunteers may or may not be compensated - again, this depends on the CICT project, which I will help draft as well. :) PhilOSC can be one of the venues where these schools can sign up. -------------------------------------------------------------------- mail2web - Check your email from the web at http://mail2web.com/ . -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List plug@lists.q-linux.com (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
