+        <p>In the Debian Edu / Skolelinux project, we have realised that one
+of the major blockers for the project success is the purchasing skills
+in schools and municipalities.  We provide what the happy users of
+Debian Edu / Skolelinux say they need and to a lower cost than the
+alternatives, and yet so few schools decide to use our solution.  I
+was pleased to discover the same observation done by mySociety and Tom
+Steinberg in his blog post
+"<a href="http://www.mysociety.org/2012/06/19/can-you-recognize-the-million-pound-chair/">Can
+you recognize the million pound chair?</a>".  Read it and weep for the
+spending of your tax money.</p>
+
+<p>Of course there are other factors involved as well, like our
+projects bad marketing skills and the Linux community fragmentation
+causing worry with the people on the outside, so we as a project need
+to keep working hard to gain users, but it is a up-hill battle when
+public decision makers are unable to understand computer system
+purchases.</p>
