KDE Book Used in Universities

Sunday, 11 February 2001

You might be interested to know that KDE is being used for teaching in universities. I'm also pleased to say that they're using the open content KDE 2.0 Development book.

Perhaps this isn't news to students, but it was to me! If you're also reading the book, I encourage you to visit Andamooka and annotate it. Your comments are very helpful and appreciated. [Ed: Specifically, this fine book is being used by the University of Applied Sciences Bonn-Rhein-Sieg and Karlstads Universitet. If you know of any other schools or Universities using KDE or KDE books to teach, we'd love to hear it.]
