I stand corrected ;-)
And I have a question.
We (kde marketing ppl) are looking for numbers. How much KDE is out
there... I'll reply here with the marketinglist as cc, see if they're
interested. Maybe trying to figure out a good guess of how many
Skolelinux desktops are out there. On their site is a list of 151
registered schools using it, interesting, but how many did not
register?

@Don: thank you for the information. And sorry also... If there is
anything we can do for iTalc in the area of promotion - let us know.
We could announce new versions, do an interview for the dot, stuff
like that.
