It's going quite nicely. It's not a project to create a distribution, it's
a project to get Linux servers in schools. 6 machines were donated by
Intel, and a total of ~14 machines were installed with Linux at the
workshop. By now the majority of them are in service.
As a data source, the admins of these machines would be poor. They're
servers, pure and simple. Only 2 ppl of 50 raise their hand when asked if
any end-user software would be run on these machines...
I go to work now....
TTYL,
Omega
