We have cleared up some of the details on this already.

Doc Rea said he would welcome our participation as an
advisory group or direct mentoring.  Why don't we see
what time and resources we can offer to his class?  Of
course, the students are welcome to join the KLUG lists
and come to KLUG meetings.   :-)))

Remember... these are NOT CS students.  BIS students...
refer to my previous RANT on this distinction!  :-)

Although I reported that information to Robert G., the news
did not get posted to a KLUG list, that I know of.  Bruce told
me about it in a private e-mail.  I told Robert G. in a private
e-mail as well.  Are we trying to keep it a secret???  <wink>
NOPE!  I disclosed that info on the volunteers list this week.

That class is already in progress... different class
from what I understand.  Is that right Doc?

This discussion is for a class that is being developed
for Spring semester... BIS 596 - Open Source Software
and Systems Workshop (3 credits)
