[Wireless-general] Introducing the Wireless General List

[Bruno ROGER]

Hello all,

My name is Bruno ROGER, I work as a trainer in a telecommunication 
school in Dakar (Senegal).
I am involved in the project of Wireless Workwhop (training material).
I am french speaking (and in a French speaking country), my role will be 
to translate some of the content in order to organize some workshosp 
also in French. My experience in Senegal (6years) will also be usefull 
for localizing the content, and make it more concrete for the people around.
The place I work (ESMT) is involved in the CISCO Networking Academy 
Program (for CCNA) and one of the unit that we teach to our students is 
about "fundamentals of Wireless netwoking". Being an Academy, we have 
some CISCO equipements for practicing with the students.

Last thing, nothing related to me, but more for Anna: this new list does 
not contain a "reply-to" so each time people reply, they may forget to 
cc the list and messages will be sent to the sender only. The old list 
had this, I guess it's just an option  to activate in the configuration 
of your mailist program.

Bruno ROGER,
ESMT/DI
