This is important enough to me, and presumably to a number of other 
people on these lists.  I have started putting my thoughts down on the 
web, and invite anyone who wants to contribute to add to them (it's on 
a Wiki): 
http://wiki.linux-delhi.org/cgi-bin/twiki/view/Main/NationalICTEducation

The document is still quite preliminary and I'm hoping that people more 
qualified than me will take some time and help fill in the copious 
blanks.

Insh'allah some of the ideas that we come up with would be able to 
influence the forthcoming policy in a positive direction.  I have just 
one request, which is to avoid jingoistic anti-MS statements that may 
end up making the whole document unpalatable to policy makers (this is 
specifically aimed at the Linux/FOSS community ;)  Here the subtle 
knife may be preferable to the blunt hammer.

Note that you will have to register on the Wiki before you can edit the 
page.  Your account details will remain confidential.
