I was serious about the Computer Science. I have been previously disappointed with JORUM's provision because a good deal of the material that was filed under "CS" was of the "Learn How to Type" genre. I was hopeful for the possibilities that JorumOpen offered, but sceptical that much would change. Now there is a good quantity of undergraduate level computer science - after just one month - and I am genuinely delighted.
