[OSGeo Africa] Introduction to GIS & Remote Sensing short courses

[Gretha <gretha_g@sun.ac.za>]

Hi Frank,

Thanks! And yes we definitely want to go Open Source at some point (when there is time...), or at least include sections in which we use open source software. I'm also interested in converting these courses to on-line or distance learning courses at some point, and then open source would make sense.
In the meantime it is worth noting that ESRI gives us a great deal where enrolled students qualify to buy a student licence at a minimal fee and get the entire suite for a year - difficult to refuse!

Nice courses but wouldn't it be nice if they were presented using Open Source software ;-)
