    I am sending you this description of a software project which I
    would appreciate you posting to your students.

    Basic Description:   The software would involve putting together what
    best can be defined as a highly detailed scheduling program.  The
    intricacies of the software is what will make it unique.  After
    researching it out I beleive that no such software currently exists.  It
    will be utilized in scheduling adult and youth athletic programs and
    their associated facilities (all with highly specialized requirements).
    It will be designed to meet and address the specific requirements of
    various sports and youth age groups.

    Who Will Use It:   Targeted towards parks and recreation departments of
    various localities and municipalities.  Although the software can have
    off shoot applications the primary use will be for athletic programs.
    An example of such an offshoot application could be scheduling meeting
    rooms (particularly when room size and other facility concerns are
    highly varied and specialized).

    Viability:  The market has been researched.  Not only does this
    sophistication of software not exist- program supervisors have expressed
    a strong need and desire for such an offering.

    Platform:   Needs to be designed to work on Windows 95.

    Technologies:  No special technologies are recommended (unless
    programmer has own recommendation).

    Problem Areas:  I perceive this to be a complex assignment (many
    variables will need to be handled).  Otherwise I know of no other
    problem areas.

    Compensation:  Open for negotiation.  I currently perceive the
    compensation to be a percentage of the total revenues from the sale of
    the software.  The risk involved for the programmer will be less than it
    is for me since I will be absorbing any and all costs for marketing,
    distribution, etc.

    Start Time:  Open.  I would greatly prefer that the start time be within
    the next few months.
