Hi Rob,

Probably quite a few grad students, post-docs, and professors will be
interested.  Theres a lot of researchers using Linux for data reduction
who really don't care about bleeding-edge stuff.  They just want a
stable, secure, and up-2-date platform for their desktops, servers, and
beowulf clusters.

For instance, we have dozens of users matching that description in our
department.
