ULI101

• currently last 2 weeks of course is xhtml/css intro
  • consider removing web content (last 2 weeks), and not expand unix content in uli101
  • this should not affect int222 or int213

INT213

• currently legacy asp
  • no changes

INT222

• currently 1st half is xhtml/css, 2nd half is css/javascript
  • html5 replaces xhtml/javascript/css (Anthony has reservations)
  • need to manage the course depth - should not be another "killer" course
  • consider changing pre-req to IPC144 (Emile)
• propose it now be HTML5 (including Javascript/DOM/CSS3)

INT322

• currently 1st half perl, 2nd half is php with apache and mysql
  • remove perl and Apache admin and replace with more html5/ajax (not Anthony's opinion)
  • recommend perl and python as professional options
  • consider using a versioning system like git/svn (Fardad)
• propose it now be continuation of HTML5 from INT222 + PHP + Ajax

INT422

• currently asp.net web forms and c# with intros to sql server and ajax
  • remove ajax
  • consider using a versioning system like git/svn (Fardad)
