Thanks Stephan, this is a nice addition that will allow the windows crowd to checkout/play with DotLRN.
I brought up your VM on Windows XP SP2 using vmWare workstation 5.5. For the sake of completeness for windows users unfamilar with Linux I would make a couple of small changes to the documentation included as index.html
$loadkeys us
to change the keyboard mapping to a standard US QWERTY mapping, if necessary
sudo where necessary to run commands as superuser.
Thanks again!
