 * When Do You Need a "Large Scale Deployment" of (Technology?) Open Source?**

Developing and deploying and architecture that is scalable, replicable, and sustainable that impacts a significant number of users which can leads to 1:1 or a ubiquitous computing environment.

What we're really saying is: if you want 1:1 or ubiquitous computing --> here are the issues --> you really can't do this without FLOSS.

//Checklist definition of needs that would lead to large scale computing://
 * 1) Are you looking for computing to improve the way teachers teach and students learn?
 * 2) Are you looking to provide a differentiated, rigorous, and engaging curriculum?
 * 3) Are you looking for students to have anytime/anywhere access at school?
 * 4) Do you need reliable, sustainable, scalable, and replicable computing?

If you checked any of the above, you need to be looking at a "large-scale" deployment.


 * What are the advantages of Large Scale Deployments of Open Source?

Planning for Large Scale Deployment**
 * **Leadership and Policy**
 * **Technology and Infrastructure**
 * Do you have a 2-year, 4-year, or 6-year proposed fiscal model?
 * **Teaching and Learning**
 * **Other / Overarching**
 * **Roadbumps**
