Only two people wrote down the URL for the program.<br>
2) I sat with the dean, and he was extremely enthusiastic about hosting an Install fest.<br>3) PSUT has IT students only, so they don't want the ubuntu course that we are giving. However, they are interested in giving LPI material. The student that I mentioned earlier, Samer Fanik, is giving linux courses and said he is willing to cover the LPI course. Maybe we need to coordinate with him?<br>
4) The dean requested lectures about any and all things open source. I volunteered to give a PHP course, and I'll start building the syllabus now. If anybody has any suggestions for courses, please share. Apache, MySQL, Python are all viable topics. We need topics and speakers.<br>
5) We also can give a "What is open source" lecture. Something along the lines of the lecture Khamis is giving before the course in JU.<br><br>That's about it.<br clear="all"><font color="#888888"><br>-- <br>
