The closing date for the government's e-learning strategy consultation
document is the end of January. It is likely to be influential in future
education software policy and hardly mentions FLOSS. I have heard that
the number of responses made to the document is low so there is an
opportunity to redress the balance if people who understand the issues
take the time to fill out a response.
The document itself is at http://www.dfes.gov.uk/consultations2/16/
I have sent a response on behalf of the Association for Free Software
and my own company. If anyone wants this as a basis to save them time I
can send it, but best not copy it word for word. Mainly its to get
certain idea about open standards, strategy and inclusion policy across.
