A collection of such 'good works' might not be out of place somewhere 
on the website once it's been collected.

 Do foreign educational institutes count as well for this purpose?
 
 Yes.
 
 I think the Dutch University of Twente uses FreeBSD a lot for their
 curriculi.
 
I'd say the courses by Mr McKusick might rank here as well, putting the
*BSD on a big pile I guess, but teaching Unix Internals.

FreeBSD Foundation: Examples of FreeBSD as teaching aid/research plat

2000-11-09 Thread Justin T. Gibbs

As some of you may know, I'm working on a 501(c)3 (tax exempt/non-profit)
determination for the FreeBSD Foundation.  The IRS seems to be a little
confused about the nature of FreeBSD and we're currenlty working on
a response to an initial determination from the IRS that was not
favorable.  One thing that would help us to explain the nature of
FreeBSD and how it is used by the public is to enumerate some
specific examples of how FreeBSD is used as either a teaching
aid or a research platform by educational institutions.  If possible,
please include a contact name, email, or phone number so we can
ask additional questions if necessary.

Thanks in advance for your help!
Justin

2000-11-09 Thread Justin T. Gibbs

I'm subscribed to -stable and not current, and yet I received this
email.  Do the lists get mixed up once in a while?

You're the victim of mh's dist command which I used to make this
plea to several mailing lists.  Unfortunately it looks like
cross posting is disabled in majordomo (probably for good reason),
so a conventional 'To' line didn't work.
