Hi Em
Well, things are moving ahead. A lot of people feel about as you do and have
their local settings scoped out so that what we offer is "free" with a gold
certificate of some sort at the end of it. And those who want to make it
part of a class where they teach (not everyone has such a place, or they
don't care) are free to do so.

Luisa and Steve are putting together a google group. Anyone interested
should contact them directly:
<stevegabosch@me.com>, "Luisa Aires" <laires11@gmail.com>,

Seems that a LOT of xmca-ers would be willing to give a lecture. As soon as
we have a roster of interested presenters, we can come up with a beginning
list. By that time, Steve and Luisa may have worked through
a storage/access plan. There are now a lot of cheap storage facilities
around that could be used.

But first, those interested should write to steve and luisa and join their
google group
mike
PS- Get your babblefish handy, the google group sign in instructions are in
Portueguese!
