I've been talking to the Computing Lab at the University of Oxford about various ways in which Tuscany might be useful to them. One subject that came up was that we could offer project work to their part-time M.Sc students ie students that are typically already working as full time software developers.
The project is officially supposed to take 200 hours of effort, including writing a dissertation which is the thing that is actually assessed towards the degree. In practice, most students spend far longer than that, typically three times as much. Therefore, I would estimate that we could propose projects that represent about 4-6 weeks of development effort. This is an opportunity for us to attract developers to Tuscany and at the same time raise its profile with a variety of employers. If anyone has any suggestions please post them as replies to this note or contact me directly. Please bear in mind that the students will not necessarily have any knowledge of SOA or Tuscany and may well need support - to get started at least.
