Thanks for the Feed Back Jonas. I feel your pain. You are one hundred percent correct that iaep is the catchall list for the project. If a topic starts getting enough traffic, It will likely branch off into a new list. Hopefully, we will have enough eduction specific traffic to warrant its own list in the near future. But, to be honest, I think that will take a lot of work. On the bright side moodle has laid a lot of the ground work in bringing the notions of community development and open source to educators. david > Good luck with the ever more succesful Sugarlabs project! > > - Jonas > > - -- > * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist og Internet-arkitekt > * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ > > [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (GNU/Linux) > > iEYEAREDAAYFAkpDlfsACgkQn7DbMsAkQLgWEACdH043O3p0xY0eRIAz8G6goVcg > jUwAnjU0sjfyhduuFC5F3/HRX4f4+3Uq > =zwmK > -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- > _______________________________________________ > IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!) > i...@lists.sugarlabs.org > http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/iaep > _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
