At 2006, I verified that both, we in Extremadura and Skolelinux project, had been working in parallel for some years, doing very similar things, using very similar tools and with similar targets, so -I decided it was time to join forces as much as possible. +I decided it was time to join forces as much as possible.

Sometimes the differences in the implementations, laws or economical and technical resources in the different countries don't allow us to agree in the same solution for all of us, and several approaches are needed , what is a waste of effort. Also , there is a lack of more man power to be able to follow the fast evolution of the -technologies in school. - +technologies in school.

I think there is not a single strategy because there are very +different scenarios: schools with mixed proprietary and free +environments, schools using only workstations, other schools using +laptops, netbooks, tablets, interactive white-boards, etc.

But, looking at these differences, and looking back to the things we've done and implemented, and the places were we have spent most of our forces, I think we should focus as much as possible in free -multiplatform environments, using only standards tools, and moving +multi-platform environments, using only standards tools, and moving more and more to Internet or network solutions that could be deployed using wireless. I think we'll see more and more personal devices in the schools, devices the students and teachers will take home with them, so the solutions must be able to be taken at home and continue -working there. - - * Who should be interviewed with this questions in the future? - - Petter Reinholdtsen, of course.
