I was actually going to post this.

Worth thinking about.

Free Geek: “Helping the needy get nerdy since the beginning of the third millennium.”

The concept is simple, really.  Hire a handful of staff members, pay
them the same hourly figure from the top down, train volunteers to run
the business and work solely with donated electronic items to make them
reusable or recyclable. In the process, teach volunteers how the
business works and how to rebuild computers, allowing them to adopt a
computer after 24 hours of volunteer service, giving them on-the-job
training, as well as a social outlet.  The result of the effort keeps
harmful products out of landfills and enables schools and groups who
desperately need computers to receive them at no cost. Last, but not
least, make it all a democracy so volunteers and employees can
participate in the direction of the collective.

Re: Linux Terminal Server Pilot Project

Okay, People,

I uploaded a new version that seems to work correctly.

Apparently OpenOffice doesn't export it's drawings in a good manner - I 
meand the little yellow pyramid that I made with the drawing functions. I 
took a snapshot (with ksnapshot) and now inserted the pyramid as a jpg.

That seems to work.

Sorry for the confusion.

Still, please tell me what you think 

Ace

PS I als uploaded the .sxw, it's in file/10

I noticed when I went to the printer and first repaited their winxp 
network and then still couldn't print the document.

I will try to fix this now.

Ace,

Major parsing problem in middle of document.  Causes Acrobat to throw 
up errors

Linux Terminal Server Pilot Project

Dear friends,

Since long I have not let myself be heard in CIS. Now's time for a change.

The past two years I have relentlessly tried to implement Linux Terminal 
Server in Schools in Curacao and Bonaire. All I have to show for at the 
moment is a Pilot Project, which can teach us valuable lessons.

In fact, political forces are slowing progress. However, many different 
groups and individuals have shown interest and I am confident that one 
day you will see lot's of LTSP installations on our islands.

I would also very much like you to read the document which you can find on 
http://www.suares.an/file/9 (is it a pdf file). I will make an 
introductionary page later today.

I would welcome your comments.

Many greetings,

Ace Suares

Re: Postgraduate Research - Business Owners and Managers Survey

Hey Allan
Would be interesting to see how many people actually do the survey
voluntarily! I suspect you might have to call up some people and ask
for an interview!

Postgraduate Research - Business Owners and Managers Survey

Dear All,

I am working on my MSc thesis and currently I am collecting the data I 
require.  The aim is to "develop a strategic framework to improve the 
FLOS industry in Trinidad and Tobago so that it is capable of supplying 
the services and support implied in objectives of the FastForward plan".

For *Business Owners and Managers*, the URL for accessing the survey is:
http://www.floscaribbean.org/survey/index.php?sid=2

The survey consists of 20 questions and should take no more than 10 
minutes to complete.  Most answers are either checkboxes or radio 
buttons making it easy to provide responses.

This survey is open to any business owners, entrepreneurs and managers 
working in Trinidad and Tobago, regardless of the type of business.  If 
you know any other individuals who may be able to provide responses to 
this questionnaire, please forward this request to them.

I thank you in advance for providing your responses.  If there are any 
queries, please contact me at 784-9293.

Sincerely,

Allan Samaroo.
