Several other people have mentioned that it is useful for other fields, and in particular, they use it for all CS students at Nancy in France. Most of it is universal, but parts of it are more theory oriented. I don't have any concrete plans for generalization. I'd need some input from other disciplines as to what is "expected behaviour" in their talks. > Would you mind if I integrated it with our locally "How to write a > Term Paper" advice? You are quite welcome to distribute it wherever it is needed. A few people have made sensible suggestions, so there will probably be a newer version out by the end of the month.
