[Edu-sig] iBooks in Maine Middle Schools

[Dustin Mitchell]

I know this isn't quite Python in education, but I'm curious to hear
reaction to this news from Edu-Sig.  I'm a 'non-resident Mainer' teaching
Middle School in South Carolina (ugh, hot and *no* school funding) right
now, so this kinda hits home.

Reactions?  Thoughts?  Anyone close to the issue have something to add?

Dustin
