I like that idea for a chance to test the process in a controlled environment. After that, we were frankly going to approach the local charter high schools, see if anyone was interested in the idea. Figuring the case study would help. Is there somewhere that has a good set of case studies of schools (of all types) migrating infrastructure, productivity, and/or coursework to be open source based? - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Sr. Developer Community Mgr.
