Via EdTechPost, this link (and this one) points to the important role being played by free educational software worldwide. As Frederick Noronha (who is an imposing presence in the Indian software community; Google and see) writes, "Because Free Software evangelists are not motivated by money alone, chances are that they will work on areas which have the highest social need. Not just those that pay attention to the luxurious needs of the affluent. It's no coincidence that education is high on their agenda, both within India and abroad. Some of the best brains are here. That's a fact. The strong sense of 'community' makes it very easy to share software, ideas and solutions."
