Re: FOSS and universities

[Ricardo]

Thanks for the link, Ciaran. I searched the site you mentioned but there 
seems to be no similar projects to what I suggested. Maybe I was not 
clear when I said "programs for educational and research purposes". Such 
a project wouldn't be limited to educational apps, actually the focus 
would be on any application an university student/professor needs. Like 
I said, AutoCAD, Gimp, Inkscape, Blender, Ardour, Open Office and so on. 
It would represent a great boom in the development of those apps. That's 
why I searched a general discussion mailing list. And also for the fact 
that the Edu-EU list isn't being really active lately (last threads 
there are from september 2007).

        P.S. Sorry for the mess with the date of my first e-mail. The 
system clock was set wrong.
