well if it is any consolation he is very active and on the ce-gnu-lug
mailing list. the only reason most of them got out of plug is because the
volume of plug mail is simply.....too much to handle....
besides, i think riker would rather work on some star trek project.
hehehe.

well, currently, we (ACENT) have courseware in the works so that dem
guys at bluepoint cannot claim than an ISP stole their courseware. when
the material is done we are releasing it with the open content license.
most of the material is new and the course itself is designed as a
hands-on course rather than an academic course. it aims to train people to
be systems administrators and networks administrators of a real system.
there are already some modules done and if someone would like to
contribute just email me. i am sure the rest of the ACENT module writers
would not mind giving back to the community. right guys?
