Dear pcp-ers

This is a little bit of nationalistic tub-thumping, but: NUDIST was not
"developed" by Learning Profiles, it is marketed by them. It was developed
by husband and wife team Lyn and Tom Richards, sociologist and
philosopher/computer scientist, at LaTrobe University, Melbourne,
Australia.

But it is a good program, and I think everyone in the pcp community will
find it useful, particularly for finding quantitative/qualitiative
compromise solutions of the kind that have been much discussed on this
network recently.

Good luck!
