    I used "Redmine" (http://redmine.org/) for this. Redmine has issues tracking system, news, wiki, forum, blog, etc. All-in-one solution that satisfies me :) As a developer I can customize Redmine. Please note that Redmine use "Textile" syntax that may make you confused :P For e.g, my Free...

    super secure OS

    Assuming that you know to load the ndis0-module at boot time. Because it's hard to scan wireless network with ndis (as I experienced) you should first know the SSID (it's the network broadcast name that you can read from windows machine or ask someone else). For e.g, if the SSID is "my_ap"...
