Might I suggest using TheOpenCD instead? That project already creates a
CD of Windows-based free software and the team that puts it together updates
it fairly regularly.
I think the key that's needed for a library outreach effort (sorry, but
I can't resist throwing in my $0.02 worth) is the human contact with the
individual libraries: the general chit-chat and education in free software
alternatives, along with various amounts of hand-holding and support.
