openSUSE för skolor

As more and more schools evaluate Linux as a cost-efficient alternative for their running systems in a way that will be "ready for the future of education" and as more and more "homeusers" find out, that their children need a PC (and good PC knowledge) to have a stake in the future. Linux, Linux desktops and openSUSE become more and more useful. It's our job to make it more Educational.

We try to support schools using openSUSE, create and describe additional software-packages for educational projects and create an "add-on" CD for the regular openSUSE distribution. As this is a community driven project, we need you and your help to bring openSUSE into the schools.
