Audience or Impact; Our initial audience is BECTA, the UK GOV IT provisioning department for all Gov funded schools and colleges in the UK.
Brief Descriptions; Two objectives. 1) Get the OLPC on BECTA assessment list for the £30m project to help poor uk kids to get connected to the internet, with a proposal that any OLPC purchase would also purchase an equivalent number for a developing country. 2) We also wish to assess the OLPC as a communication device for other disadvantaged groups, by loading and testing the ekiga sip client on several UK Broadband connections. The notion is to support other disadvantaged groups to get connected.
Relevant expeience and other projects; 20 years creating and launching communication services in the UK.
