You and the team behind SchoolOS have obviously worked hard and done a good job. Your active participation and promotion of SchoolOS on various lists is very visible and commendable.
However, remember that there /will/ be people who do not know about SchoolOS (in fact, you should look at that as an advantage -- more people to promote/advertise to).
actually no school will ever ask 'why school os'. The people who are asking are people who have their own favourite OS that they want to push. Or others who generally put down any good effort by saying 'why reinvent the wheel?' Remember there are lakhs of types of wheels today - because people keep reinventing it. If there are people enthusiastically setting up OSs in schools, and they ask this question, it may be worth answering - but I doubt whether such people will ask the question.
