Red Hat and Suse boosted by EU education

,----[ Quote ]
| For Red Hat, it isn't just the French public sector where it is making gains. 
| Earlier this year, the Kingfisher Group migrated its 240 Castorama and Brico 
| Dépôt stores to Red Hat Enterprise Linux. The DIY retailer was able to halve 
| the number of servers it required and increase server performance. Every one 
| of the Kingfisher outlets in France, Italy, Spain, Poland and Russia is now 
| equipped with Linux servers.

The O'Gara shill (SCO and Microsoft) is on the loose again, so be careful what
you read (she blogs anonymously after that embargo, ban, and cleanup of her
paid-for SCO/Microsoft trash). Microsoft also uses its partners to
issue 'studies' about Windows in European education. It dumps free software,
too.

FSFE To Launch Free Software in Education Program for Teachers

| Hundreds of documents on Free Software, such as OpenOffice.org, The Gimp, or 
| GNU/Linux, and documents on Open Standards have been screened by a team of 
| experts in regards to quality, free license and validity. The result is a 
| basic collection of high-quality learning materials that have been, or will 
| be atomised and entered into the SELF Platform.
