This is a tremendously interesting but increasingly technical discussion.
It's difficult to weigh pros and cons of an entire OS in an e-mail
discussion. Would it be possible for people to create pages on the wiki so
we can get a clearer outline of:

In 2009 Caryl Bigenho took the pioneering initiative of building the 1st

up of well over 100 Southern

Hi everyone,
Just wanted to send a reminder about this big fundraiser that we're having
for the computer program I've been helping groom in São Tomé. I just talked
to one of our teachers today, who said she is praying that we have success
in our fundraiser so that we can keep the program growing.
Thanks for the reminder! I'm planning to submit something and have even
come as far as jotting some key words, unfortunately I'm not sure
whether I'll actually have the time to turn them into something
reasonable in the next 3 days... :-/
