I can only confirm this. I know of at least two projects, and for many 
schools it looks as if they will follow.

I'll meet Reiner tomorrow, I'm going to speak with him about this.
Although I missed his presentation last year, I saw many visitors around the 
booth.

I don't know who else will be there (maybe it seems appropriate to inform 
kde-events too?), but I'll be there for sure, at least on one of the two 
days, maybe both.
Given a _very_ rough schedule I think that around this time KDE 3.0 is 
released, so many other kde-edu apps (like, umm, Kard ;) can be shown there 
as well as being part of the 'upcoming' KDE 3.1 (as LinuxTag in Chemnitz is 
visited by many developers), so we might get some interesting hints.
