Hi Robin,
Only issue I have with licensing is with the SBS TV show.

Once we have a reasonable working prototype I think we should contact
SBS re their copyright/licensing position re the original Letter and
Numbers game show.
Should do this before releasing anything into the wild.

regards

Hi Mike,

Maybe call it another name? and they say it's base on the Letters and Number game from SBS

Cheers

Hi All
The Launceston node is down to one, me.
I am also having internet access problems but hope to be back on line later.
I will post the url to the latest version of Number Crunch.
How is it going down south ?

Hi Mike,

Well done. To that far !!!

We got to the stage where the data for the quest is is going in the database (then I broke that at the end of day) and the lots of useful stuff done is like the bearing and distance to different points work. Github managed to get in way by being slow and maybe more complex that what we needed. The github repo is https://github.com/sproutlabs/Where-To-Next . We are going to keep on working separately and then maybe regroup in the new year. I'm thinking the we do my marketing/PR early February about the outcomes for the start up the teaching year.

Coding at speed is hard, it been interesting experience

Cheers

Robin
