First, I want to make sure that it is known how appreciative I am for
all of the help that I have received from "towsonu2003". Second, I am a
volunteer to the Computers For Families (CFF) program www.sbcff.org , as
part of the IBM On Demand Community program, that is offering free
computers to elementary school students in order to erase the digital
divide in Santa Barbara. Last, the CFF program mission is simply "a
computer for every child who can't afford one". We want to replace
Windows 2000 with Edubuntu on the donated computers, therefore, we need
to replace the Windows only content filter, that is donated by
Cybersitter, with DansGuardian.
