[ubuntu-za] school setup

[frans]

Thanks for the feedback so far guys,  I realize this is not a mail list 
for Windows programes, but essentialy this is the only Comunity I really 
trust not to sell me this and that closed source programe for  $$$$$$$ 
and as I mentioned in another post if I can get a foot in the door here 
maybe I can Ubuntu on the next rollout. This install is just a bit far 
from home to really make a real noise about the OS. Otherwise I would 
offer free support.

I Think I should install some of these programs on my home Computer  
especially some of the kids and education stuff William mentioned, for 
kids, and education, Would I be correct to assume that Edubuntu can also 
set certain programes for the learners that they may use? instead of 
instaling and uninstaling each as needed? Also would a ltsp server be 
feasable?  These guys have allready planned the antivirus and server 
sizes,  I'll take my OSS Programes and ideas with, and maybe Iwould be 
able to influence something. If  we can teach them Open Source then 
maybe...just maybe Linux would not seem so foreign any more.

I'll give this list of files through to the Organisers and hear what 
they say it could save some money at least.
