Greetings,
Dr. D. B. Phatak wants to create an offline internet. It will be a collection of sites which are of importance. This is for the schools and colleges that do not have internet access. The sites will be included on a CD, and can be installed on the HDD of the servers. Dr. D. B. Phatak wants many people to work on this, and we probably have the people to help for this cause. I am willing to do the co-ordination for this project, but I am not the official co-ordinator, let me know if you are interested in helping in the project.
Hi,
I am willing to help. In fact , I am very keen on creating an offline version of www.tldp.org. We can give away these cds along with knoppix and FreeDuc as and when this is done. I have spoken to a lot of newbies to GNU/Linux. They want a good reference book. This CD might just be an answer.
Also another idea which came of of a discussion with Mr. Nagarjuna @GNUnify was that we could have a subscription kind of service for corporates and individuals. We can mail the update CDs every 3/6 months. I was thinking something on the lines of MSDN which we lack for GNU/Linux.
Luggers plz send your comments on this.
