Dennis, you could maybe consider joining up with that team, now that you had put quite some thought into it. -- Josiah Mugambi Jonathan Swift<http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/j/jonathan_swift.html> - "May you live every day of your life."

We have been working on such a project - and just an hour ago, we gave a demonstration to 4 permanent secretaries of the government and officials from BPO, ICT board, university, education and other private sectors [including the media]...
When we first proposed the project - there was a lot of enthusiasm, but enthusiasm waned and we failed to get commitment from skunk members...
So after speaking with Phares [the moderator] and a few others, I decided to 'employ' students from catholic university and university students to execute the plans or dreams... Skunks interested and with diverse talents were to be involved later [if they are interested] since we will be having something more concrete to work with...
We have began from a different approach [being an electrical engineer] - we decided to construct a small scale round about with moving and controlled traffic where we shall be collecting real time data....
[we also have other ideas but we felt it was prudent to have an actual small scale model of what we want in real life situation]
For more information, please visit University of Nairobi 'FabLab' that is hosted by Dr. Gachigi, there you will find the humble launch of the project so far...
