RE: CIS Projects

If UWI gets the project course back up at UWI this could be a possible
source for projects for the final year students.

Yes, I spoke to them a while aback.  The guy who started hosting the .tt
registry in the first place is also interested.........incidentally, he runs
the ttnic........

I have yet to actually put something forward regarding the website
project.........i won't mind if some beats me to it as I know my time is
limited until july...........basically I want to give schools a chance to
have an online resource similar to Ameena's
(http://lenguaislamiatia.edu.tt).

The problem is we (the CIS) is not going to be maintaining it.........there
are two alternatives:

1. Train the teachers.  I may be able to get something running at the VTC.

2. Let the UWICS maintain the sites.  

I'd prefer a synergy between the two as it can benefit both groups.

Allan.
