I would agree, however it wouldn't hurt to put a link to the relevant
website for each application if we can incorporate some sort of README
in each of the Applications directory, or if we chose to go the route
of an installer program rather than a HTML index as would seem to be 
the case due to not being able to launch installers from any other
browser than IE.

Can the project leader make a summary of where we are up to and what
are the next landmarks, so we can all start to pull in the right 
direction.
