This entry is part of a series, Elements of Programming»
[please see the preface post for information on getting starting with this study group.]
To try and get the EoP group restarted we’re making a few changes. We’re resetting the schedule moving to 1 month per chapter (see below) and we’ve asked Piotr Jachowicz and Karl Miller to help keep things moving by encouraging the assigned people to submit their summaries and everyone to submit their exercises.
If you signed up for a chapter, please confirm, before 2010-08-06, that you are able to complete your chapter summary by the new due date.
Thanks.

Please mark me confirmed for the chapter on Copying. Thank you.
Hello, I am signed up for chapter 11. I was originally part of the group, but a few things happened unexpectedly at the start of the group- I started a new job, I got a puppy, then the holidays rolled around. I kept up for chapter one- and IIRC I completed the exercises. Do you think it is possible to catch up? or will I now be long out of date? My schedule is still quite busy, but I have a lot more time now than at the beginning of the study group.
Let me know, -K
I think you have good chance to catch the group. Don’t give up!
Thanks Kevin, You’re not too far behind. I’m marking you down as confirmed for Chapter 11 – still plenty of time to catch up!
