I've actually been trying to figure out how to bring up the idea of a p2p CS university/program. Kind of like a HN University. The goal would be for people to be able to easily take courses and interact w/others around all things CS.
One of the beautiful things about computer science is it seems less and less dependent upon degrees as predictors of success. We believe that this is where most fields will go in the future. People pointing to references from trusted others, work examples etc. will prove to be better predictors than degrees. Consequently, we are investing a fair amount towards using the CS curriculum as a type of pilot project.
If you are passionate about this kind of thing and want to help out, shoot me an email at glen at nixty dot com. (p.s. really trying not to make this sound like an infomercial for NIXTY. just trying to be clear about what we are doing and our plans. thanks).
