Debian-Edu/Skolelinux Reference Schools

In November, 2002, a PHP/Mysql project was started in order to keep track of schools using DebianEdu/Skolelinux. Back then, these schools were named "Testskoler" (no: testing schools). Now as DebianEdu grew up, we call them reference schools.

Schools who decide to use DebianEdu/Skolelinux as free Custom Debian Distribution, are kindly ask [http://skolelinux.no/slschools/editschool.php?lang=en to sign up to this database]. Thus,

  • schools using DebianEdu/Skolelinux will easily be able to get in touch;
  • developers can follow the major types of environments (also check out [wiki:DebianEdu/PopularityContest ?PopCon]);

  • schools can get free extra publicity; every 50th school will get named in a press release (if they agree).

Statistics

By May, 2006, about 150 schools have been registered voluntary in the database of reference schools. Two third of these (i.e. over 100) are from Norway, mother land of DebianEdu/Skolelinux. About 30 registered schools are in German speaking countries. There are further schools in France, Spain, Denmark, Poland, Mali, Eritrea, Ireland, Greece and Belgium.

Below, you can find a graph displaying the growth of users:
