The Dean of the School of Science and Engineering of Ateneo de Manila University, Dr. Toby Dayrit, is spear- heading the open source movement in the Ateneo. The movement is supported by the Department of Information Systems & Computer Science (DISCS), which aims to lead the School in the adaption of open source. For a start, all the teaching labs now dual boot to UbuntuLinux/WinXP, with Ubuntu as default. By the end of this week, even the open labs will dual boot also. The faculty are studying ways to teach the traditionally Windows-heavy courses like Multimedia (using Flash, Photoshop, etc.) with alternative open source tools.
Hi. It would be nice to post the social impact of moving desktops to open source...probably compile that to come up with best practices of moving to desktop open source.
