guys, maybe as a start customize UBUNTU live cd if you are going to distribute and burn it. There are already tools available that can help you do that. (PACK a DVD version with all you can think of that can act as a rescue CD for windows too) maybe add native support for NTFS, install VLC player(maybe with a window media player/winamp skin as default), clam antivirus, data recovery tools, reg-edit tools etc..... then make a html pop up at xwindow at every cd boot that explains what cool tools they have in the CD, how can they setup network, browse internet, do office etc.... Have a link of MPP, fos-nepal and this mailing list in it with some contact info and description. Maybe, a brief voice intro! In the pop-up HTML at startup, let users know if someone's CD is broken or they want a new version they can come to MPP or maybe IOE (few more places??? from FOSS club @colleges ... where else???) and get a fresh copy of live CD for completely free. burn few books for them stacked up with links to start with that explains *nix history + some technical contents. you dont wanna promote windows == bad or linux == great.... naaa let the users discover that from the content instead of telling to them. Think marketing for what we believe in, think business... but with least loss or investment....... not just from a technical standpoint. We already have FM for free promotion. ...n i'll follow up the avtivity for the fun ;) cheeeeeese.... -bipin --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ FOSS Nepal mailing list foss-nepal@googlegroups.com http://groups.google.com/group/foss-nepal Community website: http://www.fossnepal.org/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
