Careful. ;-)

They didn't quite achieve their aims, it is true so they could be called
"unsuccessful", but I think describing them as failed is a little harsh.  At
the very least, they raised awareness of the importance of Free Software to
schools and of schools to Free Software.  I would love the former OSiE
people and so on to get involved in this campaign and help it.
