[kictanet] Notice:-BPO eDiscussion, June 2nd-15th, 2009

Thu May 28 11:56:16 EAT 2009

Eric,

The one done by UoN is funded by IDRC as public domain research (project approved April 2008). There's certainly need for synergy and no need for duplication of efforts.

It would have been nice to have this information in the public domain.
