[Qgis-user] [Fwd: [OSGeo-Discuss] New site demonstrating the use of Free & Open Source Software]

[maning sambale]

We are starting to publish a few of the materials that we use for our workshops:
http://download.essc.org.ph/wcsp2011_geo_workshop/

Although this has its own local flavor.

At the moment, the installers are hosted in our own server are the
links in download.qgis.org permanent?  I would like to simply include
the link to download.qgis.org so that it can be included in the qgis
download metrics.

Feel free to use and contact me for corrections or wrong attribution
for some of text I copied from the qgis manuals.
