As I was saying, in agreement with another post, maybe an ALUG signed message to the EDP explaining about linux etc. might be helpful (I also offered to write it if no-one else wants to).
I would almost certainly sign such a message. I need to prepare, but I am a teacher of post-16 maths who is willing to demonstrations. Of course, I might have a financial interest in this (see sig) if there's demand for support. I am also an exec member of the UK Association For Free Software (web site at http://www.affs.org.uk/) and know other people who are willing to give demos in other parts of the country. (And, from what I've seen, I may not be the only ALUG member on AFFS exec for much longer. That is a really wonderful thing.) -- MJR/slef My Opinion Only and possibly not of any group I know. http://mjr.towers.org.uk/ jabber://slef@jabber.at Creative copyleft computing services via http://www.ttllp.co.uk/ Thought: "Changeset algebra is really difficult."
