Also, note that you are skipping SAT/SUN where we are finishing the XML editing. I'll recruit for help and will get Chris a list of who else needs SVN access by Friday. Some of the people who have offered to help are probably best available over the weekend anyway. > Chris, Karsten, can you have your chapter done by 2359 Wed nite? "Explaining the Code" went to 100% a few hours ago. I got some great cluebats and URLs of CC-licensed content on #fedora-docs yesterday afternoon, so I ripped and restructure and rewrote, and am sooo much happier with the chapter. http://teachingopensource.org/index.php/Explaining_the_Code Lana Brindley[1], whose work is remixed there now, is one of the voices who has been talking with university students about this topic. I'm going to recommend we make this chapter the canonical location for such content, let us all help improve it, and teach it as we see fit. - Karsten [1] http://lanabrindley.blogspot.com -- name: Karsten 'quaid' Wade, Sr. Community Gardener team: Red Hat Community Architecture uri: http://TheOpenSourceWay.org/wiki gpg: AD0E0C41
