Hi Folks
Been following this from the side. I agree with Amber and David - sensible
and pragmatic solution, time slicing works for me. If it is a bit messy I
think it is well worth it for the community aspect - after all education
is an inherently 'messy' business :-) that never fits cleanly with our
ambitions for metadata - we should know that by now :-)
All the Best
