More: Microsoft gathering information on the place of Linux in edu

[Paul Jones <pjones@metalab.unc.edu>]

Hey boys and girls,
I wrote to Jeff and told him that UNC does not fill out survey forms in
any offical capacity, but that I would be glad to forward his survey to
"interested parties" who might fill it out volutarily. So here you are,
volunteer away! I'm sure that you will enjoy giving him some helpful
information. Feel free to repost this to other interested parties.
