OpenOffice Impress and writer usually do a wonderful job showing the presentations and .doc files with homework.
Homework, interestingly, is not a problem for me. Since homework is written by TAs, it's usually available as pdf or ps (they write it in LaTeX and then convert to pdf/ps). This may be a sign of improvement in the future, when the TAs replace the current professors ;-).
Perhaps we TAU students can write a joint letter to the people at the top windows (not the computing division) about why openness is in the true university spirit? I can't see a lot we can do when the budget is shrinking and the entire attitude at TAU is usually 'go find someone to shake you down' ("lech hapes mi yenaanea otcha').
Well, maybe I haven't been involved enough, but I haven't (yet?) noticed this attitude.
I also find it strange that there are enough "Linux people" at TAU to organize Linux lectures/days/instaparties, but you say that talking to the computing division is useless. Am I getting the administrative structure of TAU wrong? Are those two sets disjoint? ;-)
