Kubuntu Takes Over Georgia; Ubuntu Summit Video

When I was 12 we had a question in the school's annual general knowledge quiz "What is Georgia?". The three correct answers were: a country in eastern Europe, a state in the US and the dog of my English teacher. The dog died and I don't know much about the US state but we had a nice talk about the country this morning.

Georgia is rolling out Kubuntu in all their schools. This is being done as part of a project to bring the internet to every school in Georgia. I don't have many details yet but it should become a Canonical case study soon enough so it will be used as an example of how free software is taking over the world one country at a time.
