[JDLD] Open Source uptake by educational bodies

[georgesk@boltz.univ-littoral.fr]

Hi Malcolm,

I read your e-mail which was forwarded by the seul-edu mailing list.
In France, Open Source uptake by educational bodies is also sporadic,
but it is taken in consideration better with time.

You can find many examples of usage of Opsen Source software in the
"académie de Grenoble", please start viewing 
http://www.ac-grenoble.fr/uell/usages.html

Many experience was shared in a summer university in Grenoble, see
http://www.ac-grenoble.fr/uell/

Some of the most interesting conferences will be repeated in Dunkerque
(France) Friday 22 October. CLX, the LUG of "Nord - Pas de Calais"
here would be glad to welcome our neighbours who can come via Dover
and Calais (there are 40 km between Calais and Dunkerque). 
CLX : http//clx.anet.fr

Of special interest would be the video conference made by Bruno
Bzeznik : he shows how he can manage some tens of school networks from
his office. Such a video conference can be repeated in any lecture
room with appropriate hardware in the world.

there will be an english version of these pages in a few days.
