Hello!

My name is Michael Starkweather and I attend MacArthur High School up in the
North East Independent School District (NEISD). My English teacher, Mr.
Draves, has seen fit to assign a short research project about any topic in
San Antonio. After reviewing my interests and recent forays into the Linux
world, I came up with the brilliant idea to write mine about Open Source San
Antonio. However, there is a problem with this topic: not much information
is published about it at all. Frankly, I need your help.

As a San Antonio based Linux group, I would assume you would have more
information and contacts then a seventeen-year-old high school student. Any
information about this topic is relevant and I really would appreciate your
help finding information. Acceptable sources are just about anything --
books, papers, interviews (can be conducted by me), websites, and probably a
few more. As well as sources, references to people would be great as they,
as well, could provide these things.

I am especially looking for information about the benefits of switching to
Linux with application to San Antonio.

You have no idea how much this will help,
Michael Starkweather (Mpstark)
