Thanks Craig I can see some real potential here as a 'bridge' for schools coming to terms with concepts such as Wikipedia, and also for those with access issues (filters, bandwidth and costs). How long do you envisage such a project would take? How much work do you think is involved? It may be possible to organise some assistance with this, but I don't have any concept of what process would be followed to develop this project. Could you give some 'how to' information as background?

And we would have to decide what "Australian" contents gets in, eg: iconic/well known tv shows/what history content gets in. _______________________________________________ Wikimediaau-l mailing list Wikimediaau-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaau-l -- GN. http://gnangarra.redbubble.com/ _____ _______________________________________________ Wikimediaau-l mailing list Wikimediaau-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimediaau-l
