About teaching OSS and the board getting "active" :(

[Marc Lijour]

Hi

today I got from one technician my school board is about to rule out all my 
software (StarOffice/OOo, Eclipse, Subversion, Dev-C++, Firefox, etc.) within 
a week or two.
Still under shock, I ask as politely as I can, what is the reason they'd want 
to wipe out the software I teach and all my courses are written with. After 
the first response, which is with no surprise "because we don't support 
it" (if I care), I get a rough explanation of their move to Active Directory 
and how they will beautifully handle thousands of users in a mega-network (if 
I care).

Humm..

I let my direction know about it and we will see what happens...
