[school-discuss] Linux in education reports--passing the baton (I hope)

[Doug Loss <drloss@suscom.net>]

Folks, the Linux in education reports (I'm going to miss my self-imposed 
Monday deadline this week) are nearing the 100th report mark.  That will 
mean nearly four years worth of reports.  I find that it's time for me 
to pass the baton to someone else to create and disseminate these 
reports.  I've been having a gradually increasingly hard time getting 
them out on time, and frankly I think my voice is becoming a bit stale 
after so long at it.  I think our communities would be better served if 
someone else would take on the responsibility for doing them.

I'll be glad to explain just what I do to create and disseminate them 
every two weeks; it's not much of a chore.  It takes me perhaps 1-2 
hours to write a report, post it to the SEUL/edu server, and alert all 
the places I normally tell about it of the existence of a new report.

Karl Peņa has been very helpful in writing the reports when I've been 
unable to do so, but I can't just drop this in his lap.  So I'm asking 
for someone to volunteer (perhaps more than one someone, so the load can 
be lessened even more) to take up this responsibility.  If you would 
like to contribute something back to the Linux (and Linux in education) 
community, are a good writer, and don't feel that your software or 
hardware skills would be in great demand ( :-) ), this may be just your 
opportunity!  Please feel free to contact me either privately or on one 
or another of the mailing lists I'm sending this to.  Thanks for your 
continued support, folks, and please step up to help!
