I think that free licenses are available, but not the ability to pre- 
package into the distro.  I'm guessing someone could put some  
detailed instructions on how to configure it for the K12LTSP distro,  
but I don't think that the licensing would allow a pre-packaging.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong,
