Wiki Book Update (11/8)

I am really proud of my group, we have been individually and collectively plugging away at our wikibook chapter. At this point we have some great work done and it should soon be posted to the page. I have been working on a section devoted to the E-rate program. I have some good stuff collected from a number of resources including a flowchart that has been manipulated from a PA organization that helps school districts with E-rate. After an email to the director they were nice enough to grant me free usage (copyright) of the flowchart for manipulation and posting to our page. The flowchart turned out great and I added some extra information documenting the dates and process steps. Before I post the working draft to the wiki site I want to nail down a bit more wikibook conventions, like citations and hyperlinks. I have also been working on converting some charts and graphs from an excel document into the pages so that they will be nicely organized. The process is unfortunately not as easy as a novice may hope but I am figuring it out. I plan on sending my group members a tutorial email so that we can all have high quality charts/tables on our page.
