Hey, there seems to be a loud silence on my earlier question - what is your vision for KICTANet. And remember there is only 32hrs remaining on this question before we move onto the next issue on Mission. Maybe we rephrase the question a bit. What HAS BEEN your understanding of KICTANet? For most of you who have interacted with KICTANet over the last year would agree that it has meant many things to different people. That is what we need to hear. What has been your understanding of KICTANet over this period, how different (if so) do you feel it should proceed? Bill, Dr. Juma, Sparrow, FE, Limo, et al, plse come out of the woodwork ;-)! walu. --- John Walubengo <[email protected]> wrote:
