You may be interested to follow up the occasionally mentioned theme of
free and open source software in schools.
I have set up an e-petition [http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/schoolsoftware/]
that you may consider signing to encourage the PM to promote acceess to
free and open source software in schools. It closely follows Early Day
Motion 179 Software in Schools
[http://edmi.parliament.uk/EDMi/EDMDetails.aspx?EDMID=31752&SESSION=885].
I have summarised the rationale behind the e-petition and placed salient
links to supporting organisations and other famous people on my blog
[http://specialschoolict.com/2007/02/12/pm-petition-software-in-schools/].
As it happens:-
+ the PM's e-petition system was in the news over the weekend and has
seemed a little slow since - such is the pain of internet fame.
+ I am in the middle of upgrading my blog - but past the worst - it is
settling down.
In both cases please be patient.
Regards
JE Chappell
