I've had a think about this today (and I'll post a draft tmrw afternoon sometime) but 2 things spring to mind.
Firstly, considering the subject it might be worth including something along the lines of, 'if you are a school and are interested in linux then contact ALUG for advice, demos. If you lot agree with this inclusion then perhaps the website could have a 'schools click here' button which links to contact details added to it?
Secondly, and rather anally, if the letter were to be signed from us lot then how long should I wait before assuming no-one objects and sending it? I wouldn't like a letter to be sent in my name (although indirectly I supose) which I didn't agree with so I would be inclined to wait a few days (at least) before sending so everyone can voice objections. On the other hand, waiting too long *could* mean the story getting old and the letter not getting printed.
Does anyone have any comments pls?
I think we should just get on with it. Post it quick, wait a couple of days for for comments and approval/disapproval. If you feel there is enough support then send it.
