Doug,

Some time ago, I offered to evaluate some software for this ISO, but 
was given the impression that only teachers/educators would be 
qualified to do so.

I feel quite competent to evaluate the utility of educational 
software, perhaps not directly from a teacher's point of view, but 
as an impartial party with a reasonably broad knowledge of the 
utility of educational software.

Personally, I think the more people doing these evaluations, the 
better.
