This is a good initiative, and very useful. Back in 2010, I did a talk
at a seminar held by the Danish union HK on "Free Software for Microsoft
Windows" where I ended by handing out OpenDisc,
http://www.theopendisc.com/, a related project, but in English (and
currently not very active, it seems). The particpants were very happy
about receiving all that software and also started asking questions
about GNU/Linux systems and how to get them without my having to mention it.
