    Hi Charlie,<br>
    Thanks for your feedback.<br>
    <br>
    Is there any chance you could strengthen your statement to say:<br>
    "I hope to be co-teaching a web-GIS class at UMass next spring.
    Details haven't been finalised yet. However, in anticipation, I am
    offer to commit some of my time to help advise Massimo in creating
    content which will likely be of use to GIS trainers such as myself."<br>
    <br>
    Regards, Cameron<br>

          that is on the web. So connecting that idea to the material
          that Cameron and others have been maintaining on the Live DVD
          production process is important. This will be an important
          issue we take on at FOSS4G EU in Como in July. So Massimo, you
          could help us in this context, potentially.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>2) Open source web GIS class</div>

        </div>
        <div>On my end, *I may* be co-teaching a web-GIS class at UMass
          next spring. Not yet sure, and my collaborators and I aren't
          sure what technologies we would use for student projects. But
          if open source web-GIS is something you might do, and if I do
          end up designing a course, I could potentially help review
          your material.</div>

        <div>Others? I agree with Cameron -- a nice opportunity here

            Education folk and Massimo,<br>
            <br>
            Massimo, I think your Google Summer Of Code education idea
            is very compelling. As you are aware, I've volunteered to
            mentor from an OSGeo-Live perspective.<br>
            <br>
            What I find incredibly compelling about your idea is that
            you are proposing to provide technical material to be used
            directly by OSGeo Educators. However, what is missing is
            endorsement from a number of educators validating that the
            material created will be used.<br>
            <br>
            OSGeo educators, please do step up if you can, and say:<br>
            "This proposal will result in material that I expect to use
            within my OSGeo training course(s) XXX. I volunteer to help
            Massimo define the scope of material to cover."<br>

              <br>
              Thank you for informing this excellent project idea. I
              really hope this project will be successful as i can see

              Hi,<br>
              <br>
              sorry for any cross-posting,<br>
              <br>
              I’m applying as Google Summer of Code student for the
              OSgeo-Live project.<br>
              My idea, described here [1], focus on free and open source
              software for education, so i thought it can be of interest
              to this list.<br>
