I was pointing out that if the roll-out was to be completed by July/August 2009, there would be no need for the issues that we are dealing with for our family history teaching from September to December 2009. We had a full discussion with FamilySearch folks from Salt Lake, and we were not told that the roll-out would be completed before the semester starts. As you might imagine, it's very difficult to teach a group of students when some have access to NFS and others do not. We have been creating double assignments for awhile, depending on what the students have had access to. It has been a pain, but we are working with it. I'm not complaining, it's just a logistical issue for us. This is much different from teaching a ward where everyone has the same tools--regardless of what those tools are.

It will be interesting to see how fast this process is completed. Personally, I'm not counting on anything this summer. It will be nice if it happens, but if not, we move forward anyway.
