We have one up and running at this point. We've had it for a while
actually but between Michael Richardson's health issues and my being
busy with my divorce, we've been tight on time.

Uch... if you only knew. Do you know what it takes to get something
considered for a curriculum with the State Regents? Rob had over 60
GNU/Linux systems up and running at Concord, arraigned meetings with the
department of education, and we had written up a complete text, and we
were being told that if the private publishing interests weren't on
board, then there was no way to get such a program through the schools.

And then there is the Department of Education infighting with the
Bloomberg administration.

Its not easy, even with 501C status. The way in might be as a vendor
and/or as a University. Having Stony Brook as a partner is helpful.
