Hi Jane,

Thanks very much for meeting with me last week amidst everything else.
I appreciate it very much.

You asked me to send some more information about KEWL.NextGen, so we
took you seriously :-) 

I attach 
1. A howto regarding how to get KEWL.NextGen going on Ubuntu. We did
the installation while writing the document, and then repeated it
afterwards, so it has been tested, as has the package installation.
2. A RAR zipped document of the KEWL.NextGen features.

We have also prepared an experimental Debian package, as explained in
the howto. This package can be downloaded from 
http://kngforge.uwc.ac.za/resources/kewl-nextgen-1.0.3-all.deb 
It is an experimental CVS snapshot, not an officially released version.
It is a large package (47Mb)  because of all the context-sensitive help
that is included. I test installed it last night on a machine freshly
formatted with Ubuntu and it worked for me.

This is just to give you an idea of how we will be prepared to go the
distance as it were to make sure everything works for Edubuntu.

Regards
Derek
