Another angle on the issue of file-type diversity:
No doubt Alan and Ryan are right about the cause of this glitch--a mere
configuration oversight. Still, the event should be the occasion for some
speculation about what's going on in the schools. For a *long* time I've been
making noise about open-source software at the university where I teach
writing. You'd think some lively discussion would ensue at that kind of
place, but I've found the response to be deafening silence.
Over at DistroWatch <http://distrowatch.com>, some discussion about schools,
libraries, etc., converting entirely to Ubuntu suggests ideas that might leak
into the mainstream. Maybe there's a story here for an enterprising young
journalist (??).
