Started some work on the University OpenDisk idea Philip had. The software in square brackets is what is currently used. I think it would be something good to ensure all software has both a Linux and Windows version. That way we could get students using the software on Windows, and then use their familiarity with those packages to move them over to Linux.
There are a number of applications I have listed, for which I know no suitable substitute offhand. Also, I haven't included any software that would be required in 3rd and 4th years as I haven't got there yet. *General Development* - OpenJDK [JDK] - Mono [.Net Framework] - Eclipse or Netbeans [Eclipse or Netbeans] - MonoDevelop [Visual Studio, Visual Studio Express Editions] *Functional/Declarative Programming* - HUGS [WinHugs] - SWI Prolog [WinProlog] *Diagramming* - ? [Visio, SmartDraw]* Engineering* - ? [PSpice] - ? [Matlab] - ? [Emu8086] *Databases* - mySQL [Oracle] - ? [WinRDBI] *Compiling Techniques* - JFlex [JFlex] *Applied Graphic Design* - ? [PolyRay] Anyway, that is what I have so far... Anybody know of any better alternatives, other subjects, or things I have overlooked?
