| The School has been a long-term Linux user, originally deploying RedHat Linux

| Being involved in the Scottish Open Source Awards has been something of an
| eye-opener for me. As a Linux enthusiast I am reasonably well-versed in Open
| Source as it impacts on the home user, but I had clearly under-estimated the
| impact that Open Source has had on the wider community, in business and in
| education.

Findings of the Open Rights Group Election Observation Mission in Scotland and
England
,----[ Quote ]
| The Open Rights Group cannot express confidence in the results for
| areas observed.
|
| The Open Rights Group (ORG) believes that the problems observed at the
| English and Scottish elections in May 2007 raise serious concerns
| regarding the suitability of e-voting and e-counting technologies for
| statutory elections. E-voting is a ‘black box system’, where the
| mechanisms for recording and tabulating the vote are hidden from the
| voter. This makes public scrutiny impossible, and leaves statutory
| elections open to error and fraud.
