I don't know the status of those, but if you are interested in working on those topics, you should get in touch with the WaSP folks (I can give you the contact info), so we don't duplicate effort and to keep a fair, collaborative relationship going with WaSP. Obviously, they are able to reuse any of our changes under CC-BY, but we'd also like be friendly, and hopefully have more contributions from them, too. > > >> Educators, I'm particularly interested in hearing from you about what >> you think of these curriculum structures - how useful they are to >> you, and what we could do to make them more useful. > > Yes, same here! > > > I note that the term "(X)HTML" is used widely throughout the curriculum; we may wish to change to the term "HTML", if we consider that a current best practice. We are using HTML5 as the markup standard throughout the rest of the material, so yes, we should change it to HTML, imo, for consistency's sake.
