Chris, I am excited to see that SchoolForge will be represented so well in the UK. I took a look at your website and saw that you had a link where people can add their Case Studies, are you aware of the General GNU/Linux Case Studies at http://casestudy.seul.org/ and the K12LTSP Case Studies at http://k12ltsp.org/casestudy.html . Perhaps you can encourage people to add to those two sites instead of starting a whole new place to submit Case Studies. The problem is that the information for people considering using Linux in education is so scattered throughout the Internet that it is at times hard to find the good information. If there is one more Case Studies place online then it will be that much harder for people to find the good information your audience will contribute. Just a suggestion, the consolidation of information will be a great thing for the Linux in education community. Make it easier for everyone to find information. I would also like to make you aware of the Linux In Education Portal (http://www.linuxineducation.org), it provides links to the best information on the Internet for people considering using Linux in schools and it might be an appropriate link for your SchoolForge UK website. Thanks for letting us know about what you are working on.
