Although we haven't promoted it much, we already have something 
along those lines: <http://seuldat.seul.org/npo/>.  Right now I'm 
working on drumming up interest in two such concepts that no 
one's doing yet:  a Linux "clone" of PrintMaster, and a Linux

CD-ROM encyclopedia.  If anyone is interested in working on one 
or another of these, contact me.
