[K12OSN] Thursday Evening Interviews on K12 Open Source: LTSP and K12LSTP

[Steve Hargadon]

For those interested in Linux thin-client technology, our webcast interviews
on Thursday evening should be noteworthy. We'll be expanding our format for
this week, and holding two interviews. The first, starting at 5:00pm
PDT/8:00pm EDT will be with Jim McQuillan and Eric Harrison. Jim is the
founder and project leader of the Linux Terminal Server Project (LTSP), and
Eric is one of the lead volunteers for the prepackaged K12LTSP distribution.

The second interview will start at 6:00pm PDT/9:00pm EDT and will include
Daniel Howard, William Fragakis, and Shawn Adams to discuss the status and
roll-out of Linux thin client in Atlanta Public Schools.

Next week, August 10th, we interview Mike Huffman, the Special Assistant on
Technology for the Indiana Department of Education, who will discuss the use
of Linux and Open Source Software as part of their push for affordable
classroom computers for every secondary student. On August 17th we'll be
interviewing Michelle Moore from Remote Learning about the ever-popular Open
Source program Moodle (and hopefully find out more about the new patent
issue).

Instructions on logging into the Skypecast and/or chatroom are on the web at
