THREE CHEERS TO KERALA: This input is from linux_schools at yahoo.com (Herald), who writes: Kerala is leading in Free/Libre and Open Source Software front. 200 schools multiplied by 100 students on an average gives 20 thousand GNU/Linux users. Children are very curious and fast in experimenting and learning new things. When they go home and talk about it, the elders also will be automatically interested in checking what this software is. Similarly the Engineering students will start getting interest in Free Softwares.... In Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh there are only the private schools to harvest as the government ones have been captured by Microsoft. Check http://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/linux_schools/ MAHESH T PAI added earlier: About 200 schools in Malappuram district installed GNU/Linux. The driving force behind this initiative, AFAIK, is one Mr. Sujeevan P, of an organisation called IIRC, S2S2. _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
