The future is not laid out on a track. It is something that we can decide, and to the extent
that we do not violate any known laws of the universe, we can probably make it work the
way that we want to.- Alan Key , Smalltalk creator

I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did
not have C++ in mind… - Alan Key , Smalltalk creator

What’s your point?
• Quotes from CS guys are fun• As part of the Sakai development
community, you have the opportunity to “invent” the future of Academic Computing
• This is supposed to get you excited about Sakai and community source
• But… you need tools and (more) skills to contribute to the effort in a meaningful way
