Nice interview, Marco and Ian! Ian, if you can make it to SF, I have established a good relationship with a teacher here that I am sure is going to develop into something quite positive. I think that you INGOTs program will really help these kids and the teachers get what open source is all about. I have given the school just two computers for now, but there are plans for much, much more. This teacher is completely pumped by FLOSS, because this school has nada, nothing, zilch, zero, and the kids have less. We hear about how poor Extremadura is, but I gotta tell you, these SF kids have so very little. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
