all,<br> &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; I received a mail a few days ago from a school in the UK that is \
doing<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; a roll out of ~400 computers using KDE software. The \
official<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; unveiling will be at the start of the next school year \
(September) but<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; they are already at a pretty good stage - I&#39;ve \
seen some nice<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; pictures. This is quite cool news, since the UK often \
sucks at this<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; kind of thing (free software in education, or public \
institutions in<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; general). There have been a few others, but there is \
not normally a<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; whole lot of press about it.<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; So, we need a writer. It&#39;s a fairly simple, but fun task. \
I&#39;&#39;ll put<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; you in touch with the contact at the school and \
you cna put together<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; an interview (we can help with questions, \
standard things like why KDE<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; software, how&#39;s the process going, \
what improvements could be made,<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; what do students/teachers/parents \
think, any plans for further<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; expansion). Ultimately the article \
would go on the Dot (and there&#39;s a<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; fair chance some UK news \
outlets might pick it up, particularly if I<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; poke some people I \
know...).<br> &gt;&gt;&gt;<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; Publication probably wouldn&#39;t happen until September, but that \
gives<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; plenty of time to ask some questions and do follow up as \
required near<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; to or after launch. It alos means that, unlike many \
things here, you<br> &gt;&gt;&gt; won&#39;t be under a lot of time pressure. Who \
