Our co-ordinator swung the Netfinity donation and now we have a pretty awesome machine at our disposal ready to be Debianized. We plan to use it as a workspace for the various projects we have in mind so we'll start with a SSH shell server and soon add PHP/MySQL. We're tossing around ideas around booting thin client support for machines in the computer lab as well.
I am interested in thin client aspect. I'm Slackware guy, but there shouldn't be too much of difference with Debian, as long as XFree86 and Kernel are uptodate. - How many PCs do you have for Linux X-terminal? If you don't have enough, then multiple cpu-less stations (ie. monitor/keyboard/mouse) can be set up. - When do you plan to meet this week? -- William Park, Open Geometry Consulting, <opengeometry-FFYn/CNdgSA at public.gmane.org> Linux solution for data management and processing. -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.

10 or so. There's been a recent donation of low-end P1, 32M machines, perfect for this.
