I am already committed to Debian and don't mind the add-on
piece of the effort. Sure would love to see them create a
comprehensive Ham Linux CD, though. It would be handy
even though much of what is on it would be old-version within
a few months or a year!
I have inquired on the appropriate list and await a reply --
will post if I hear something.
