Important point for us. How can we make sure, we will introduce other Freedoms in ICT@School project in Karnataka. I think something like Google's Highly Open Participation Contest would be good http://code.google.com/intl/ml-IN/opensource/ghop/2007-8/

I hope our summer of code students can help in this. Any other ideas?

Raj, I think there would be problem if you chose to adopt or recommend the *mode of educating* Free Software in Kerala. Nothing that I know here uses the opportunity to equip student community to get introduced to Free Software through its different Freedoms other than *Freedom Level 0*.

This is a fine trap that Kerala's IT@School project is led into, as of now, because all these learning exercises can be replaced by Freewares or Sharewares or other subsidised Proprietary software.

If these concerns are unfounded, can they be substantiated with evidence ? Guess Arun or Vimal may be able to clarify.
