Germany The paedML (sample solution) in Baden-Württemberg is migrationg to UCSSchool by [...] Time for edu news again. Here’s what I collected in February: Community CC licenced FS promo material at the FLOSS Competence Center Network, they started to provide some creative commons licensed promo material to spread the word.

After hearing all [...] Last FrOSCon, Kurt Gramlich, leader of the German part of the Skolelinux project, gave a brief overview on the Skolelinux pilot in Rhineland Palatinate. What happened after the first euphoria and listed reasons why the pilot may be considered a failure. It was a very entertaining and informative talk. I learned quite a bit and [...] I am back home after two months of traveling.
