Linux Lite is on Foss Report "What was the best Linux desktop distribution in 2016" http://http://fossforce.com/2017/01/best-linux-distro-time/. I just voted which made only 4% (44 votes). If the some more of the 1499 Members of this forum, Linux Lite should get some deserved recognition! ;D

Late in posting but I restarted a Linux Special Interest Group (SIG) within the local computer user club about a year ago. The club was happy to have a Linux SIG again and to gain about 10 new members. The club was in the past large but lack of interest had brought it down to a small number so we meet with the Windows users. We usually have a monthly program on Linux that even the Windows users attend. While the Windows users complain about their problems, we Linux users just grin at each other. We are getting a few converts to Linux because some of the Windows users are trying Linux on their older computers. I am also posting on our Facebook page articles that I read so I am even doing Jerry's first recommendation.
As usual, Jerry has given us good advice. 8)

#9 - if you submit documents in a post to Duolingo community, it will be translated free ;) .
They need verification from owner so they know they won't have copyright issues etc.
As learners try to do parts, staff and native speakers will vote it up/down until it's good to go/passes.
They are very big on education and learning, seems a good pairing for the translation of Linux documentation.

I enjoyed reading that, thank you rok :) Knowledge should be free.
