[Fsfe-uk] New open source philosophy course

[Paul Mobbs]

Hi all,

Mathias is an interesting dude I worked with a couple of years ago via APC. 
He's starting up an innovative online philosophy course from Goteborg 
University and was wanting volunteers to take part -- **free**

Get in touch with him if you're interested.

Hi Paul,
I hope all is well with you.

The reason why I am sending this email is that my department has allowed
me (and some others) to start a distance learning course in open source
philosophy. Unfortunately the decision making processes at my university
are extremely slow and we have not had time to publicise the course.
Which means we are doing a lot of mailing! Since you work with open
source as a teaching tool I thought this might be of interest to you (or
you might know people who are interested). See more info below.

A distance learning course in "Open Source/Free Software: philosophy &
theory" (November-January) is being offered by the Dept. of Informatics
at the University of Göteborg. This is the first time the department
makes a distance learning course available to students outside Sweden
and we hope that many students will be interested in the discussions.

==============

"We are not for names, nor men, nor titles of Government, nor are we for
this party nor against the other but we are for justice and mercy and
truth and peace and true freedom, that these may be exalted in our
nation, and that goodness, righteousness, meekness, temperance, peace
and unity with God, and with one another, that these things may abound."
(Edward Burroughs, 1659 - from 'Quaker Faith and Practice')
