I'm all for this.  This could be useful in developing the educational
software installations for the various distributions that Roger, Bill
Kendrick, and others have mentioned.  And since SourceForge seems to be
going proprietary, it's probably a good idea to have a place for
free/open source educational software to live (other than Savannah,
which maybe a bit too restrictive in their license requirements for our
purposes).

This should be a central part of the coalition.
