I think we should consider using some money from our treasury. ----- Original Message ---- From: George <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [email protected] Sent: Friday, April 11, 2008 6:40:15 PM Subject: sdcs/kplug linux outreach project
For an SDCS charity project we could make Linux starter kits that would have a CD or DVD and some printed documentation. We could give/loan/sell them to libraries, churches, library friends clubs, senior centers, etc. Maybe the starter kits could be as simple as an Ubuntu CD and a few explanitory pages. I don't see why the library should have a limited supply of expensive books for specific distributions when they can have an essentially unlimited supply of our inexpensive starter kits. There are a lot of details to work out... Do we want to invest the time and money to make the starter kits look more like a real book? Will they actually get used? How can we get some assurance that the librarian won't just toss them?
