In other words, it seems to me that someone in the project got the idea of free software completely wrong from the very beginning. @Guido: My concern is not under what conditions companies agree to make profit in the project, but the point of schools not having control over their machines.

“Menta” Live DVD – use in teaching (workshops for teachers) – Silvia Kolaric and Vinko Prelac

Sense of the “Menta’s” first steps to facilitate teachers in the use of open source software in teaching.

Each kind of approach has its own limits, and it is our due to balance them and get the best as we can from the sinergy of both. Thanks for the report. Reading it I don't think it is a failure, is gained experience on some aspects. Bottom-up approach should be balanced with top-down approach.
