Well, I have just finished the design of a training course for teachers. It's about Office applications (abiword, gnumeric, ooo, firefox, thunderbird, evolution) and how to use them on school tasks scenarios. We are now on the process of reviewing its contents so we can present it to one of the Chilean institutions regulating training here, so we can "it's approved by Gov." Is it necessary to mention that this course is meant for Edubuntu users? :D Next courses on list are: "Taking care of an Edubuntu School Lab", "Free Software, Free Technlology, Free as in Freedom" (a more phylosophical approach than technical), and a couple of others about Linux (Ubuntu) stuff. Our only "little" stop so far, after we are done reviewing the contents of our first course, it's that Chilean Gov. requests a payment of about U$1150 for every training course we want them to approve. Hence, I believe we'll be submitting it to Gov. revision by end of June. (hope! again) PS: BTW, JaneW, ogra, and jscotango, and many other IRC people, this is one of the many reasons why I have been "more away" from IRC so far. I believe I'll be back to IRCing like I did before, as soon as things get lot less hectic. -- Cordialmente, Mauricio Hernandez Z.
