[leglug-users] Reference to last Meeting

[naim abu darwish]

Thank you, good to know someone has already tried to do this, and looks like
they succeeded. The  project looks complete  in many ways, seems they tried
to implement and hit the wall you were talking about, so all they could do
is publish their plans.

I see  there is alot of effort already put into this, they say they have
been doing this since 1993, anyway, i am in no place to judge why non of
that is implemented. Seems a little more thought is needed  to  find  an
application for what we said, something they have not already done. I dont
want to write this off as a complete waste of time and flee the country, i
still have some hope (hidden somewhere).

Just to state again, i do not want to make money out of any of this, i just
want to prove that it could be done in a cheaper, smarter  way, whatever it
is, im still working on that :((

Possibilities are numerous.
50% of solving the problem is first defining it, so the question now stand
is to find a suitable project to start.
Just a few possible ideas ::
- An LTSP implementation, think poor schools that need to teach children how
to type, think cheap refurbished P2 machines...
- A knowledge base system, seems already done...

Thank you for showing interest in this.
