Yes, I would be glad if you put it on your iso!  But the problem is that 
SLIS is not really an application that you can install on a running 
host. It is not useable by teachers by this way. It's a set of scripts 
that will make a running server into a big network of SLIS servers. It 
needs a dedicated host and a central "man and host power". SLIS has its 
own ISO image that you must use to begin an installation. Can you only 
put some docs and links instead of putting files that will never been 
usable?

For your information, more than 1000 schools are using SLIS (perhaps 
2000 today... I've not made the sum ;-) :
