Yes, there was a a stop-start-stop-start to the tender process and in the middle there was a pilot with some schools. Digging through my gmail history (crikey this has been handy!) It was firsr referenced on the IPM12 mailing list back in Feb 2006 as a request by a teacher more information about "Darrell Fraser's baby " citing a McKinnonSC e-mail address where one pilot project was already running .. my guess for about a year?<br>

timeline of history</div>
<div><br></div>hehehehe it keeps rolling back and back so it is a very odd and
jumpy timeline. Delivery around the latter half of term 4 2010 .. rumors have
it very probably going to be slotted in after the next election as this is a
clear target.<br><br>You are wise to clarify this although I wouldn't quite
say that Moodle is the same as Ultranet. Whilst there is going to be some
overlap, there are some important scope and structural
differences.<br><br>Regards Roland<br><br>

<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Hi Folks,</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"> Since moodle and the ultranet are
effectively trying to deliver the same thing, I assumed this was the best
list to post to. </font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"> I was wondering if anyone had a timeline
of the ultranet history to date ?</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">I need to brief some colleagues on the timeline
of the initiative from date of concept announcement,
progress, tender, re-tender, how long we have been waiting and when we
can expect to see it if we are not an ultranet coach or a select
school.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial" size="2">Kind Regards</font></div>
