concept and solution into campuses is very challenging given that some
companies have provided their products almost for free as part of their
business model. I was teaching GIS programming in Algonquin one time and tried
to introduce students the Mapserver and WPS solution. Some of the students
were very happy to learn about those. However the organization was quite
negative towards Open Source idea. Anyway, good luck on this!

definitely. I would also be interested in tying it in with my GIS program
here. That's something I will have to discuss with some of my teachers though.
I may not be able to put a lot of work into this, simply because of my school
work, but I will be able to put in
some.<BR><BR>Cheers,<BR><BR>Teresa</SPAN></FONT></P></DIV></DIV></BLOCKQUOTE></BODY></HTML>
