+<PRE>Le 2010-10-03 02:34, Wolfgang Bornath a &#233;crit :
+&gt;<i> 2010/10/3 andr&#233;&lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">andr55 at laposte.net</A>&gt;:
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Targeting the school boards makes a lot of sense.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Again this is something you can not generalize, different countries
+</I>&gt;<i> have different structures.
+</I>&gt;<i> In Germany it is not a school board who decides what software will be
+</I>&gt;<i> bought for a certain region or school. This is decided on state level
+</I>&gt;<i> for the various states of the federal republic. You have to go to some
+</I>&gt;<i> state office and compete with the reps of Microsoft. You do not talk
+</I>&gt;<i> to parents or teachers, it's some bureaucrats who decide this over
+</I>&gt;<i> here (with very few exceptions).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Same with many other countries. This school board system as in the US
+</I>&gt;<i> is not a world wide system.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>
+I can't speak for Andr&#233; (he sounds like he is Canadian), but I am not a
+US citizen, I am Canadian. Our school system and software purchase
+models are the same as you describe. However, we do consult with school
+boards and interested partners before acquiring software licences. I am
+sure, the German states would consult with their partners before doing
+such as well. We have provinces in Canada and, as you say, in Germany
+you have states -- same hierarchy but with different names. As far as I
+know, the American model is more of a federalist model and
+consultation/coordination is done mostly from a national point of view.
+I am sure someone on the list will straighten us out on this account.
+
+We shouldn't assume that, if people describe a different system on this
+ML, that they are therefore American citizen who are trying to impose it
+on everyone. I just assume that we are all Canadians on the list (chuckles).
