welcome back Darryl!
Just to add – it has been interesting working with Darryl and some others in computing in UU coming as I do from a soft science perspective ..we’ve had a lot of interesting discussions about how to reduce social complexity into something computers can actually do…

early May bad for me but will be down weekend of the 20th – which I know if no good for the talks etc…but you guys go ahead if the earlier date suits..
the awards are sitting safe and pretty in dublin North…waiting for delivery…
as as Ivan saw last year – they are pretty cool!

I think there were very few entries this year actually ..that was said in passing to me and has not been confirmed officially…
..it would be interesting to find out why.. is it the process, is it the timing of the slection process (clashes with projects/ exams etc.), it is the time committment over the summer??

we’ve just posted an overview of the Carlow IT degree in games course under resources – a bit late I know..sorry about that..but it was also previewed in a feature last year.
should be useful for those who are want an overview…and want to compare courses..
people from Carlow – please let us know if the course has deviated from this plan..

well as you know the IDA/DCU official announcement was made the Tues after the shindig and as far as I know management are in the process of moving over to live etc..
as far as recruiting goes I don’t know any more…will let you know as soon as I do tho..I think they will recruit experienced staff from anywhere, Ireland or abroad..

just looked at Tonys pics…looked like very hard work.!
I think the ole Demonware humvee should have had a gd.ie logo on the outside tho’ – the entire Irish industry must have been on it…

It looks like the Letterkenny IT Computer Games Development degree will be going ahead this autumn – subject to final revisions..
so that means that Tralee It, Dundalk IT and Letterkenny IT will all be launching degree courses in comptuer game programming this coming Autumn..lots of choice for upcoming students…it will be interesting to see the variations and specialisms that all decide to emphasise..
