So.Di.Linux (Didactic Software Linux) is a knoppix like distribution
made for italian school, by the Didactic Technologies Institute of
Italian National Research Council (ITD-CNR) of Genoa.
We put into it all the didactic software made for GNU/Linux (that we had
found by internet) under GPL like license, equipped with a database
filled with the most important informations that an italian teacher
would like to know to correctly choose the needed software.
Using this distribution a sperimentation  started last year in many of
our schools. In these days we are making the third cd of three cdroms
that will be available in next days for use in the next year of school.
SoDilinux database is italian related but not all the software in it is
in italian language...so if you want to use Sodilinux to make a linux
distribution for your schools, you are free to use it.
I hope our work to approach italian teachers to didactic free software
will be appreciated. The critics will be appreciated:-)
Cheers,
