ISO Project

I mentioned this ages ago, when they were first getting started. The purpose of the ISO project is "to assemble as many useful applications as we can find and package them as an ISO CD-ROM image. Users or their technical advisors can then download the ISO, burn CDs from it, and easily install the programs they need for scholastic use." Think of it as a freeware Linux distribution intended specifically for schools. Anyhow: they are now in phase two, the evaluation phase. But they've run into problems getting the applications reviewed (you won't see that on the website, but I've been following the mailing list). So here's the drill: go to the ISO site, click on 'phase 2', select an application to evaluate, download it from the convenient list provided, give it a test on your Linux syste, and report back. Your help here will make or break this project. Spread the word.
