  22       <div class="date">26th June 2012</div>
  23       <div class="body"><p>I've been too busy at home, but finally I found time to wrap up
  24 another interview with the people behind
  25 <a href="http://www.skolelinux.org/">Debian Edu and Skolelinux</a>.
  26 This time we get to know José Luis Redrejo Rodríguez, one of our great
  27 helpers from Spain.  His effort was the reason we added support for
  28 several desktop types (KDE, Gnome and most recently LXDE) in Debian
  29 Edu, and have all of these available in the recently published
  30 <a href="http://www.debian.org/News/2012/20120311.html">Debian Edu
  31 Squeeze</a> version.</p>
  32
  33 <p><strong>Who are you, and how do you spend your days?</strong></p>
  34
  35 <p>I'm a father, teacher and engineer who is working for the Education
  36 ministry of the Region of Extremadura (Spain) in the implementation of
  37 ICT in schools</p>
  38
  39 <p><strong>How did you get in contact with the Skolelinux/Debian Edu
  40 project?</strong></p>
  41
  42 <p>At 2006, I verified that both, we in Extremadura and Skolelinux
  43 project, had been working in parallel for some years, doing very
  44 similar things, using very similar tools and with similar targets, so
  45 I decided it was time to join forces as much as possible.</p>
  46
  47 <p><strong>What do you see as the advantages of Skolelinux/Debian
  48 Edu?</strong></p>
  49
  50 <p>A community of highly skilled experts working together, with a
  51 really open schema of collaboration and work. I really love the
  52 concepts of Do-ocracy and Merit-ocracy and the way these concepts are
  53 been used everyday inside Debian Edu.</p>
  54
  55 <p><strong>What do you see as the disadvantages of Skolelinux/Debian
  56 Edu?</strong></p>
  57
  58 <p>Sometimes the differences in the implementations, laws or
  59 economical and technical resources in the different countries don't
  60 allow us to agree in the same solution for all of us, and several
  61 approaches are needed, what is a waste of effort. Also, there is a
  62 lack of more man power to be able to follow the fast evolution of the
  63 technologies in school.</p>
  64
  65 <p><strong>Which free software do you use daily?</strong></p>
  66
  67 <p>Debian, of course, and due to my kind of job I am most of my time
  68 between Iceweasel, <a href="http://www.geany.org/">Geany</a> and
  69 <a href="http://www.ohloh.net/p/gnome-terminator">Terminator</a>.</p>
  70
  71 <p><strong>Which strategy do you believe is the right one to use to
  72 get schools to use free software?</strong></p>
  73
  74 <p>I think there is not a single strategy because there are very
  75 different scenarios: schools with mixed proprietary and free
  76 environments, schools using only workstations, other schools using
  77 laptops, netbooks, tablets, interactive white-boards, etc.</p>
  78
  79 <p>Also the range of ages of the students is very broad and you can
  80 not use the same solutions for primary schools and secondary or even
  81 universities. So different strategies are needed.</p>
  82
  83 <p>But, looking at these differences, and looking back to the things
  84 we've done and implemented, and the places were we have spent most of
  85 our forces, I think we should focus as much as possible in free
  86 multi-platform environments, using only standards tools, and moving
  87 more and more to Internet or network solutions that could be deployed
  88 using wireless. I think we'll see more and more personal devices in
  89 the schools, devices the students and teachers will take home with
  90 them, so the solutions must be able to be taken at home and continue
  91 working there.</p>
