[OSGeo-Edu] Re: Peer to Peer University: Community GIS course

[Stefan Steiniger]

Hei,

do you have more details? (learning objectives and alike)

could you use data/material from GITTA:
http://www.gitta.info/website/en/html/index.html

some of their material is under creative commons.
Checking our theirs is at least better than developing from scratch.
