Well this is boring

Visible to anyone in the world

I already felt that the current course - TM352  was a little on the lightweight side. Maybe that was because I have already covered most of the course material in my day job. However, it is getting silly now. I haven't had anything new to study for about 3 weeks or so and it is 2 weeks since I posted a request about tis on the forum. On the 30th, a course team member posted as follows:

"I am the main author of those parts and they should be available soon but it is not a choice made by me as author that they are not available. They are in the production process. I am sorry if you are inconvenienced that they are not available."

Well, I am getting a little bit more than inconvenienced. I have now dropped right out of my studying schedule as there is nothing more I can do for TM352 and I have done as much as I dare for my project in TM470.

I am getting lots done on my modelling front (see my blog at http://www.gsmblog.co.uk) and working away on producing a new web site for a friend of mine who creates large oil paintings of military aircraft. That is giving me a lot of fun trying to understand Paypal APIs. I will, in the next week or so, have to integrate this site with my Riak server so I am keeping busy.

There is a tutorial tonight which will start, I hope, to prepare us for TMA 02 but we shall see. I will drop into the start and maybe dropout later. It is repeated on Thursday so I can take it in two parts if I wish.

That's it for now. I wish that there was more but....
