Mike Huffman and Laura Taylor from the Indiana INACCESS program are planning
an international conference October 9 - 11 in Indianapolis to explore the
benefits of FLOSS in education. The preliminary website is at
http://www.centerdigitaled.com/conference.php?confid=378. This is going to
be a large, professionally-planned event, using the services of the Center
for Digital Education for much of the logistical planning.
I've suggested that there have been a lot of folks who've been involved in
years of grass-roots efforts to bring FLOSS into K-12 schools, and we need
to make sure that they are recognized, informed on the conference planning,
and given a chance to give input. Would you please take a minute to add
your name (if you feel you are in that group) and the names of others that
you feel have really helped the cause over the years. I've added a page to
my K12 Open Source wiki where you can add names:
http://k12opensource.wikispaces.com/recognition.
I'll also keep posting updates to this and other mailing lists.
