[GnuWinII] appear to have made the same mistake.)

TODO;
-** The CD is _still_ web-page based, but then so are most cover CD's so I've decided this is not such a bad thing.
-** Finally figured out how to repackage OOo so that it installs itself, still working on
TuxRacer
-** I would really like to do a kiwi version of the TuxPaint stamps,
but it's a lot of work. Perhaps someone else at WLUG could look into this. We must keep ahead of [The Australians|http://sourceforge.net/projects/tuxpaint-au/].
-** Still need more documentation
and screenshots.

TuxRacer|http://tuxracer.sourceforge.net/] and [Really Slick Screensavers|http://www.reallyslick.com/] for me using the [Spoon Installer|http://sourceforge.net/projects/spoon-installer/]

and screenshots.
