It is currently unclear to me where we are going to collect and host such material, is it <a href="http://courses.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">courses.sugarlabs.org</a>, <a href="http://moodle.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">moodle.sugarlabs.org</a>, <div class="Ih2E3d">or <a href="http://schools.sugarlabs.org" target="_blank">schools.sugarlabs.org</a>? </div></blockquote><div> Thanks for help us get this started!  This will happen at <a href="http://schools.sugarlabs.org">schools.sugarlabs.org</a> . Caroline Meeks, from Solutions Grove, will be hosting it on one her servers.  We asked Solutions Grove to host it because as a professional moodle provider they are able maintain the system with much less effort then we could ourselves.  thanks david </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"><div class="Ih2E3d"> Kind Regards, David Van Assche </div><div><div></div><div class="Wj3C7c">On Sat, Nov 1, 2008 at 6:06 PM, Bernie Innocenti <<a href="mailto:bernie@codewiz.org">bernie@codewiz.org</a>> wrote: > Today I also feel like top-posting a little... > > Yes, I think that would be a great idea.  Do you know who could help us > organize such courses or write them anew? > > Also Cc'ing Seth as he expressed interest in working on content, although > perhaps he had in mind something different -- possibly complementary -- to > online courses. > > > David Van Assche wrote: >> >> Hey bernie and list, >>   I don't believe so.
