Linux in Schools: Help Yourself by Helping the Underdog
Schools and Linux should really fit together hand-in-hand. Schools need
robust, low cost infrastructure, and the Linux community needs more
widespread adoption to avoid marginalization on the desktop. Schools offer
the potential to become channels for distribution and socialization for
Linux.
Christian Einfeldt
Einfeldt is a community organizer who has worked for more than 5 years to
bring Linux to two local public schools, and will draw on this experience
to talk about what schools need to go further with Linux, and how schools
can help create greater mindshare for Linux.
RSVP
Although it is not required, we like to have an idea of how many
people to expect, so if possible please email rsvp at penlug.org if you

Traffic on 101 can be pretty bad in the evening, so we encourage you
to check traffic conditions before driving by dialing 5-1-1 on your
phone or visiting www.511.org, and if possible to take public transit
(best bet: bicycle via Caltrain) or carpool to this meeting.
