So what was all the fuss over CALEA forcing colleges and libraries to comply with FBI wiretapping guidelines? Outside of Cisco registering its biggest sales quarter in history, the lawsuits did not appear to be valid. But American University has stopped offering public internet access in their library.
Could the US Government actually force all colleges and libraries to upgrade network equipment to permit wiretapping?  Impractical to say the least. Did I miss the the CALEA upgrade from Cisco?

The time is now…and I’m not planning to fail to teach the impact of Linux. There have been many opportunities for me to gain a deeper understanding of the open source movement tied directly to the implications by major companies around the globe.
Companies must not only embrace this but develop, invest and rethink business as a result of this movement. Education is no exception . Ubuntu is hot right now.

Last year I was the sole representative from MIAD to the FTC. This year MIAD had seven available for the wide opportunity of sessions, people networking and inspiration. I think we are already looking forward to next year’s FTC!
Due to my Internet2 session I missed Moodle: facilitating communities of learners. Martin Dougiamas, founder and lead developer of Moodle was broadcast over the internet via Skype from Perth Australia to Madison. My team from MIAD enjoyed the session and we look for positive tasks for the summer.
