A couple minor corrections:

 o  "rollout"
 o  headquarters (plural form, even though
there's only one)

RULE: RULE-based vum:BOX goes into final test

    RULE-based vum:BOX will be tested from Frank
Luaba, project-coordinator from "congo:deux"

        After weeks of a very fruitful
cooperation between VUM and "The RULE Project",
we are now in the stage, where a
"should-work-ISO" was delivered to one of the
target-users, in order to put hands on it. Frank
Tenday Luaba is the coordinator of the upcoming
project congo:deux in Kinshasa/DRC. The roleout
will take place in September 2003 in 4 schools.

        Presently he prepares some of the
collected hardware in his headquarter in Vienna
with the so called vum:BOX. Based on the
Slinky-ISO (Version 0.3.95) from "The
RULE-Project" this package contains a small but
up to date version of RedHat Linux Version 9, the
most recent versions of Abiword, OpenOffice and
Acrobat Reader. 

        This first experience with a ruleified
system points out: This BOX will allow you  to
perform all standard computing tasks. And by
this, it will allow people to communicate and
exchange information across borders and long
distances. It will enable them to help themselves
and to pass their skills onto others. We are very
thankful to the OpenSource Community and
especially to the people from The Rule Project.
