Re: [seul-edu] ISO evals

Dear Doug Loss,

I would rather glad to help you. I am a Systems Manager at an Post 
Graduate Institution. I am part of the FSF Movement, Kerala, India. We 
have tested some of your products. They are good but need improvement. 
How do you think I can help in the Phase 2. Can I also know, if 
possible, the criteria you used to decide the software to be used in 
phase 1 and also which ones.

Regards,

Sidhu
