Wow, TJ, that is a VERY well-thought-out list of practical issues with the current notebook from a pedagogy perspective. I wouldn't be surprised if you are the first person to have even noticed all of these and let a list know. Maybe some of them would be easy for the notebook days folks to fix - at least the "Unpublish" ones. # 3 in particular is a *slaps forehead* issue. Jason or others, thoughts? Maybe TJ should open a bunch of issues at the sagenb site... - kcrisman -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-edu" group.
