Page "Skolelinux" Paragraph 10

The Skolelinux project was started on July 2, 2001.

Twenty-five computer programmers and translators agreed to improve the use of software in education.

They disliked that the next generation of computer users were not able to have access to source code, arguing that children who are interested should be able to learn from expert programmers to create their own software.

Other developers, especially the translators, were interested in providing computer programs in the students ' native languages.

These developers thought that students should be able to navigate the internet by having " road signs " they would understand.
