Learning lessons from open source --------------------------------- "It is all so different from the world of open source vendors, and other IT companies who are coming to terms � however painfully � with open source. UK schools can get hold of StarOffice, for instance, simply by going to Sun's Web site and downloading it for virtually unrestricted use in classrooms and at home. Some 1500 schools have signed up so far.
BECTA has a role in helping with licence management, as IT staff still have obligations, but it approaches them as adults rather than as naughty school children � or worse, as would-be criminals. Proprietary software vendors could learn something here." http://comment.zdnet.co.uk/other/0,39020682,39197761,00.htm ___________________________________________________________ How much free photo storage do you get?
