Hi Sujeevan,

Thanks for the update from Kannur. 
Similar is the situation in many other parts of the state. Some
educational subdistrict in trivandrum moved to free software
completely. Same is case with north Kozhikkodu, Parts of Malappuram,
Wayanadu and Kottayam. GNU has reached even remote corners of Kerala.
In a way IT at School project has helped us a lot ;)
