Greetings from SA

It seems we all have the same problems...the decisions makers are the 
older crowd that decide what software and skills their future leaders 
should have.

Maybe you guys should get a couple of educators/schools together and 
start a school linux user group. Create a forum that allows educators to 
play with www.moodle.org ; www.lamsfoundation.org ;

Then hook them up with distro's
www.k12ltsp.org

www.edubuntu.org

www.tuxlabs-os.org

www.skolelinux.org

Then maybe setup a LTSP lab, default the browser to Wikipedia,etc

I am planning to visit a few fiends Nz sometime this year, would be cool 
come and check one of these labs while I am there.
