As someone who has placed a number of Edubuntu systems in extended/day
care programs around the city  -- seeking out contacts is the first
thing.  The programs I've worked with are more simple to place than
trying to put them in an existing infrastructure.
Political/Administration issues are much more challenging than any
technical issues that arise.  Usually these places didn't have
anything like this for the kids.  If anyone is interested in what I've
done go ahead and ask -- I'll be happy to answer.
