Hallo Doug,

my name is Peter Bingel and I'm member of the FSuB (free software and education) organisation in Germany. I will redact - acompanied by the german Bundeszentrale für politische Bildung (federal office for political education) in Bonn - a book over the usage of free software in schools. In this book i will look "over the fence" to other countries, how the use of free software in schools is managed there. What kind of experiences do you have made - what you can say over acceptance of free software in american schools.

Can you - or other authors - write an article over this topic? The author will be payed by the Bundeszentrale.

With greetings from Bonn

Peter
