As one may read in portion of email below, The Dublin Food Co-op project 
seems to be firming up quite nicely.


In addition to a list of Linux implementations around Ireland, how about 
an "adopt-an-org", or "Penguin adoption agency"?  Low-margin non-profit 
organisations around Ireland could post a "call for help" on the ILUG web 
site, and various members could respond with time and materials, maybe 
even shift hardware donations into these organisations?  There could even 
be a web/email based support system, and instructor led courses a couple 
times a year?  I know of at least two organisations, other than the 
Dublin Food Co-op that require extensive help with their computer 
technology (or lack of same).


Or maybe I am just off my trolley . . .
