Thanks for the update Arnt. I've taken the liberty of changing the subject line and thought a brief sysnopsis and outline plan may be useful. Pigeon has alerted the list to a potential opportunity for members of the Debian community. Network Rail (the UK based rail infrastructure operator) is planning to replace all its Windows NT systems (MS is ceasing support in November). Some half dozen or so have expressed interest in pursuing this and Arnt has asked Shri to create a specific mailing list to share ideas and information (see above). I have suggested that anyone interested in contributing sends a brief note on their experience and expertise together with an indication of which aspects of the bid and/or assignment they feel they could best help with. Depending on volume, I would be happy to ask my partner, Maggie, to i put these pages up on a site/page at http://www.clivemenzies.co.uk but would welcome a better solution from someone else. We are currently v. busy and I'm concerned that the pages wouldn't go up quickly enough to maintain momentum. Once these elements are in place, interested parties (individuals or companies) can submit information for the website and subscribe to the mailing list. After that it is up to the team that evolves to agree the way forward. So, if you are interested we need: 1. Someone to host the project website 2. Resumes and indications of expertise/interest Thanks to all who have participated so far ;) Regards Clive -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
