Well, as someone who has to present their project tomorrow at the Institute of Computer science I just have the following to say: -> development time of slightly more than a month (not counting exam periods) for a project left me using ugly tools like php (so I could write a component for mambo). -> 5 marks awarded to implementation and 95 to report writing kind of tells me where I should concentrate my efforts :-D -> having almost no one who knows what should be going on behind the scenes on the examination panel means someone can rig up a "project" which is just a set of flash and/or heitml transitions between states without implementing anything. Basically all one has to do is ensure that error messages are popped up in javascript or whatever when invalid input is detected and they'd be happy. (not to mention that the only electronics related project we had was condemned by the said panel because it's "more electronics related than computer science"...) -> given that I still have to present this project of mine tomorrow, I guess I've said more than enough.. (and yes I did do a full project) but this is one very disgruntled candidate. --------------------------------------------- This service is hosted on the Infocom network http://www.infocom.co.ug
