I think that it's a wonderful idea. Out of the box thinking (wink,
wink). The question for me is how to implement.

Jos and I have been doing a good bit of thinking and discussing about
this kind of activity.

It would be helpful to hear from other KDE promo people...
okay, there's no KDE boxed set. But if you take the general idea, how
could it be implemented?
This kind of thing doesn't happen with the efforts of a couple of
people. Who's ready to jump in? Planning, writing, organizing various
tasks.
