Not really. There is a lot of "glue people" that can help bridge the gap between teachers / nontechie deployers and developers. I am one of them. I am sure you are one too. Deployments need to have a (small) technical team that also fits this role. Such bridge people are needed to boil down end users' reports into something that looks like a usable bugreport. Being a bridge person, a translator between the two worlds is sometimes frustrating ("can't these people talk to eachother directly?") but the barriers are real. Rejoice in being able to do it (at least I do). And sure -- we need to get more hands (ears/eyes) into this role. It is essential social glue. cheers, m -- martin.langh...@gmail.com mar...@laptop.org -- School Server Architect - ask interesting questions - don't get distracted with shiny stuff - working code first - http://wiki.laptop.org/go/User:Martinlanghoff _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
