Salaam Alaikom,
Amazing idea indeed جهد تشكرون عليه جدا جدا
I have few comments and suggestions as follows:
- Why not having the installation files on the CD? as you mentioned
most arab world users are on low speed internet connectivity, so its
better to provide them with most wanted sources such as
firefox,thunderbird and openoffice to name few
- Make the Main interface with suggestion tool/menu that the user
can click what type of softwares he uses most and have its source on
the CD and from the users contributions we can add the sources to a
folder called source for example and each person who want to burn the
CD can add whatever he thinks his community/friends/family uses to
include them for them, of course small development from your side to
check the source directory and if it doesn't find the installation file
it goes to the internet and download it
- i downloaded and tried to install any software for test and got
an error[1] this error shows for all not only firefox
- could possible ad Daifallah's Camel server[2] which is personal
web server people can run , would be nice addon made by arabic person
- Having centralized web page for companies/shops who want to start
selling this to list them in small directory for each country[3]
something similar to theopencd.org
thats my thoughts for now and the moment the error get fixed i'll burn
it and have it ready for people in kuwait whom want a copy can visit
our office[4] and buy one[5]
