Re: [Edu-sig] thoughts on edu-sig HTML page
Maybe what we need, more, is a list of who is on the list who is teaching courses in python. If we did this in a wiki, and asked people to put a date by their names we could mitigate the problem of wikis going stale a bit. (They's still go stale, but at least you would get some sort of warning when you looked something up.) Combining this with 'what they have to share' and 'what they are looking for' and 'what their specialties are' might make this a useful list. just an idea, Laura
I'm all for wikis, more mutable, less a bottleneck. They sometimes become sprawling (and that's not a "bad thing" necessarily). A wonderful tool, thank you Ward Cunningham. And because edu-sig the page (about 8.5 x 11 or so, if printed?) is so concise and to the point, we've got the main Wiki we know about covered (at python.org itself right?). I definitely look for ways to promote my Pythonic Math sequence (e.g. through Saturday Academy in April) and imagine many others would welcome such recruiting opportunities i.e. "recruiting" should very much be in the picture here somewhere, and without a need to pay the big bucks for a listing (low barriers to the spread of Pythonic memes means you're not trying to become a "language lawyer" complete with powers to exclude competition simply on the basis of some high monetary barrier to entering -- that'd be completely antithetical to what the FOSS bosses have been building -- our liberal / noob-friendly bazaar). Anyway, +1 Laura's reminding of Wikis, which Andre doesn't have to worry about (except which to link to). Kirby On Tue, Mar 31, 2009 at 12:11 AM, Laura Creighton <lac@openend.se> wrote:
