[IAEP] Update to ProjectBernie

[Tony Anderson]

The Project Bernie website has been updated (www.projectbernie.org).

This site provides a representative view of what a school server loaded 
from BERNIE provides
to an XO at a deployment.

The update releases the first edition of the 'hands-on computing' 
courses in the Explore section of the Class page.
There is an introductory course that introduces the Bash shell in the 
Terminal Activity, shows how to navigate the file system, and use the 
nano text editor. It is expected that learners would work their way 
through this one before beginning one of the tracks.

There are three tracks each introducing a text programming language: 
Python, Shell Scripts, and Javascript (with HTML5 and CSS3).

There are two proposed projects for GSOC15 which are intended to augment 
the Web Technology track: Web Confusion - the first course and 
Interactive Javascript Shell - the second course.

I would appreciate any feedback so that the offerings can be made more 
useful. Special thanks to Al Sweigart (http://inventwithpython.com/) for 
his three books on Python for kids, William Shotts 
(http://linuxcommand.org) for The Linux Command Line, and Evan Goer for 
"The Pocket HTML Tutorial <http://www.goer.org/HTML/>" which they have 
made available under a Creative Commons License.
