FRIAMers:
Just to let you know the value of the exchange in/on FRIAM, the Summer of
Code challenge has been sent to engaged high schoolers and interested
teachers via the email below and to a number of other nodes on the NM
network that reaches the universities and other connectors as well (reaching
the right audience for this message in NM - see the list below)!
Thanks, Sven, for your heads-up contribution on the Google Summer of Code
challenge!
Owen, your idea to prepare a Complexity team for mentoring Code Googlers is
a great one. Let me know how the idea progresses.
