   2004 - 2009

   Published: 30 Mar 2009

   We started IT46 five years ago with the aim to bring new
   technologies to the developing world. Making the world a
   better place has been an engaging activity so far and
   there is still lots of work to do. We had been traveling
   to enough dusty places to understand that the world is
   really broken and needs lots of patch work. Starting from
   the scratch does not seem an option!

   Back in 2004, we were not sure how long this company was
   going to stay alive. We were not sure if it was going to
   be possible to keep our visions and still make a living.
   After five years of work, we are happy to say that we
   still love our work and specially the people we have met.
   Our vision has not changed: knowledge transfer, technology
   for change.

   During the last weeks in the cold Sweden, we have worked
   in our new website. Rearranging the site has been a task
   that took more time than expected, it has been a bit of
   house and mental cleaning (rounding corners and organizing
   material)... trying to merge together the 2GB of content
   that we have produced in five years has not been a simple
   task! The site contains 6000 files and 640 pdf documents!

   In this new release of the website you can find an
   integrated training curricula under Our Work  nowledge
   Transfer. There, you can find over 700+ pages of content
   in seven thematic areas licensed under Creative Commons.
   Copy them and let us know!

   We have also compiled some of our software in an unified
   SVN server and integrated our news section under one
   single RSS

   If you want to have a quick look to our work in the last
   years, check the About us >> Reference Projects section or
   our About us >> Annual Reports. The search option in the
   website should help you find all the content. You can
   search using our selected keywords and the search engine
   will provide you also a simple link that you can share
   with others or add to your website. Give it a try!

   We hope to be around for another five years! Until then,
   copy, adapt and improve. Gracias, Tack, Asante, Thanks!

In many pre-Christian cultures May Day was celebrated as the first day
of summer, and signaled the start of the spring planting season. An
April Fool was someone who did this prematurely.

We obviously live in Sweden :)
