hmmm. it would be good to have just a small get together BOF kinda thing
just to exchange ideas and teaching strategies. i know that in the school
(aside from the faculty) COMPSAT is very active in having training courses
for students. this is to supplement their classes. sacha and gino should
know more about this.

yet it was a pain to request for those linux disks. and btw, hindi siya
dual boot. linux lang ang laman ng hard disk. (removable kasi HD sa
network laboratory eh).... about arrange the paperwork i would prefer having
an organization handle it... maybe COMPSAT? you can have my blessing for
the system if you wish. i can also bring it up to the department when
necessary. i just need the basics: WHEN, WHERE, HOW and WHY. hehehe.
