If anyone knows how to build a "custom" RedHat install CD set with
add/replaced packages kindly contact me in person.
Why not share it with the list? I for one would love to get my hands on a distro specifically customized for Hebrew speaking users and/or Israeli residents.

Now you can - Introducing the Linux installation and demonstration
party  for lawyers, hosted by the Israeli bar... :-)

Where: Somewhere in Tel-Aviv, I'm still not sure where.

When: December 2nd, 15:30.

What:

Recently the Israeli bar have passed a decision to use Open Source
Software as much as possible for their activities. To help promote this
great idea Adv. Haim Ravia has organised a Linux installation party and
demonstration as part of a law confrence held by the bar (he will also
give a lecture about the legal implications of Open Source at said
confrence). He has asked our help in organising the event.

Details:

Because of the obviously non technical crowd involved we've decided to
settle on a default configuration of RedHat 8.0. This does not mean that
if someone will insist of having anything else installed we would say
no, just that for simplicity we would default to installing this
specific distribution and not ask the victim^H^H^H^H client what to
install. Remember - these people has no idea what Linux is at all...

We also want to add some helpful specific applications, like OpenOffice
with bidi support beta, ADSL connection scripts , the free Hebrew fonts
etc. If anyone knows how to build a "custom" RedHat install CD set with
add/replaced packages kindly contact me in person.

In addition to installing Linux for anyone interested, we also thought
to have a demonstration display of "Linux in action" that will include
bidi-OpenOffice and usinh Linux for email and web surfing. Thanks to the
efforts of Shachar Shemesh we will also demonstrate at the event the
legal software Pad-Or running under Wine (don't worry, the copy we use
has been given us by Pad-Or themselves for this specific purpose and
they helped Shcahr get it working too :-) . If anyone has any additional
ideas for demonstration *that would be attractive to lawyers* kindly let
me know.

Cheers,
Gilad.
