Hi, I think it is a good project.

I  have helped  in two  free  courses about  Linux administration  for
colombian schools that could be useful, the final reports are at:

http://www.tamarapatino.com/servicios/cursogratuito/2/repfin.shtml

The  content  that  we have  written  and  used  in those  courses  is
under continuos development at:

I would like username (probably vtamara) and password. 

You are welcome  to join the list SLEC, where  some people of schools,
universities   and  govermment  discuss   about  Linux   en  Colombian
education.  Please check:

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/slec

And our website at:
http://www.sanmartin.edu.co/slec

where we are  also working in a wiki to develop  a whole curriculum of
computing for schools based enterely on freely redistributable software.

Eventually we could work together  since we are preparing a thrid free
course  for   administration  of  Linux  in   Colombian  schools,  the
pre-inscription form is at the bottom of:
