Hello all,

congratulations on having successfully migrated all these shools to LTSP. This indeed calls for a pat on the back for all who have toiled night and day to achieve the end objective.

We certainly should collaborate and strengthen these initiatives all around the country in an effort to take LTSP to schools accross the country.

These noble initiatives will in the long run help our schools/colleges may they be rich/poor by reducing huge overheads otherwise incurred by marrying other Closed Source vendors giving abysmally low ROI.

Have a nice day all.

Trevor

Dear Sujeevan,

Congratulations from the Goa Schools Computers Project (GSCP). With the 20 LTSP schools we have operational in Goa for the last 6 months, we now have 35 LTSP schools in India at least. May that number grow!

Can you hare details of the project with us? What distribution are you using? Maybe we can share common Linux compatible educational applications.

sincerely,

Daryl
