This is interesting - but last time I tried to work with a school they
were stuck with a preferred MS supplier by the LA and there was also a
problem with electronic whiteboard drivers for Ubuntu/Linux? Obviously,
this doesn't stop them from using FOSS on MS Win but I wonder if anyone
knows about driver availability for the whiteboards now?

Miles Berry has put together a good list of ways to make the most of
open source in educational settings.

Those of you have been around open source in education for a while
will recognise the themes that Miles has collected them together in a
compelling article that deserves wide dissemination. Pass it on.
