All the best. FN *From: * "Animesh Nerurkar" animesh@gmx.net *Subject: * 1 down, 30+ to go Hi Rico, Here's the latest on a small effort at Amchi Mumbai: 1 School boy has a newly installed Knoppix (Debian) Box. His machine proudly displays an "ILUG-Goa" sticker ! 30 more schoolchildren lined up to slowly start the transition to Debian. They're all hoping to get a more comprehensive GNU/Linux 7 CD set at a later date. So far, they're all new to the concept of GNU/Linux and won't be at my throats for a full 7 CD set, but they've already started showing signs of restlessness and would like to see what this "fully loaded" set looks like :) Naturally, for schoolchildren, I re-interpreted "free" as "free icecream" in -addition to "freedom". Also, missing is an intro session for this lot... they need to be given a crash course to get them weaned away from Windoz. Would anyone like to join in on the fun? Regards Animesh
