I asked R.W. about efforts to bridge the country's cultural technology divide by providing computer and Internet education in the public schools. He said that Jump. Net has looked at this, but still hasn't found a good way to apply their energies to this. With as much expertise as they have to bring to the table, let's hope they find a way to get involved with the effort. In conclusion, R.W. said that one of the things that really makes Jump.
Net special is that they're very approachable.
R.W. said that Jump. R.W. asked me to pass on a bit of contact information for anyone interested in learning more about Jump. Wade Andrews is their Corporate Sales Manager and also, apparently, a very clueful and experienced Unix system admin - an unusual combination of skills. The newsletter, the membership database, scheduling of presentations, system administration on our various systems, etc. The root of the issue is time .
