“April 2, 2001–The K-12Linux Project has released a
turn-key terminal server distribution based on RH7 and the LTSP
packages. This should be useful in making installing Linux in
schools significantly easier.

“Karl Peña reminded us of an article from the Linux
Journal from last March, titled “Linux in Higher Education: Open
Source, Open Minds, Social Justice”. While it’s not new, opinion on
the SEUL/edu mailing list is that it should be required reading for
educators.”

“…On March 12th 2001 at Westwood St. Thomas’ School,
Salisbury, UK there was a meeting which took place in order to
establish an official structure for the OSIE (Open Source in
education) initiative in the UK. The meeting was extremely well
represented by people from across the spectrum of educational
establishments, LEAs and companies involved in the distribution and
support of the Linux O/S, throughout the UK.”
