TDN content license

Haha Ron it's not rude to ask that in public ;). Basically, robots. Most of our units of study involve programming microcontrollers. A lot of it is to do with control theory.

I'll find out what could be ported to wiki not hosted by us. Some people that would be involved in that discussion are currently in the process of relocating to our new office in WA, so I won't be able to get an answer until next week.

Some of that content would be ok to port over elsewhere and some of it may not. And some of it should just be dropped in black hole because its severely outdated info.I'll find out what could be ported to wiki not hosted by us.

Awesome. Maybe we should actually move this thread somewhere public so people can join in the efforts to port stuff. Thanks for that Mich!
