Hey guys, Thanks for the tip on seul.org.
There is an organization, "Computers for Kids" here in austin which apparently takes donated hardware and tries to find non-profits and schools to give it to. I beleive it was started by former Texas Attorney General Jim Mattox, but I am not sure if he is still involved with it. While under Mattox, their number was 478-2900, but now it is 294-1158, and the person to contact seems to be "Putty" M.P. Collins. I contacted him with my idea (to find a poor Austin area K-12 school and set up a small linux lab for free), and he said the idea sounds worthwhile, and to write up a proposal after I have found a school willing to cooperate, then he would discuss things further. For AISD, it appears as though the Instructional Technology Center might be a good place to start (http://www.austin.isd.tenet.edu/technology/instructionaltech/index.phtml). I emailed their secretary about who I should send a proposal to, and am eagerly awaiting a response. I'll post updates to this list as my project pans out. If everything goes according to plan, I'll set up a "how-to" oriented website documenting my experiences. -jason pepas [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Monday 13 May 2002 12:20am, Omar El-Domeiri wrote: > Jason Pepas a member on the list has been looking into that.. > perhaps he'll reply to this thread, if not you can mail him at > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > -Omar _______________________________________________ Siglinux mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.utacm.org/mailman/listinfo/siglinux
