Hopefully, we will see a similar offering for the rest of the world.

IBM today also announced it is making its entire portfolio of IBM Lotus software available at no-charge to accredited colleges and universities across Latin America for software development learning purposes. Based on growing demand for Web 2.0 and collaboration technology skills from industry clients and partners, IBM is providing academics with access to the software to help better prepare students as they enter the workforce. Available as a no-charge membership on the IBM Academic Initiative Web site, academics can now provide their students:
- Developer instances of key Lotus software such as Lotus Notes, Lotus Sametime and Lotus Domino.
- Translated courseware for Lotus products from English to Spanish available later this year.
- Greater accessibility to learning materials for Portuguese-speaking students through the free access of fully translated course materials in important Lotus technical skills areas available later this year.
Hopefully, we will see a similar offering for the rest of the world.

Greg, these are very good news. We apreciate your comment at the ESLUG site and I can say that YES I have contributed posting and promoting some ideas. I don't like to domote. In fact, the most commented and the most promoted is about what you are blogging about. As Richard Moy commented, I hope the same initiative for the rest of the world.
