Please provide your evaluation for 6.005
Hi,You made it to the end of 6.005! We hope you absorbed a ton of material and all the programming opportunities 6.005 provided throughout the semester. Hopefully 6.005 made you a better programmer and set you on the path to becoming an ace coder.
Now we need your help in getting your feedback. We take this feedback very seriously. They have a big impact on the course staff -- affecting awards, promotions, future appointments etc. More importantly, they heavily influence the future versions of 6.005. For example, many changes we instituted this year were a direct result of the feedback we got from the Fall offering of 6.005.
Right now 6.005 is not doing well in getting your feedback. At this point, 6.005 response-rate is the lowest for a big course-VI class. For example, the response rate for 6.00 is at 50%, 6.01 is at 42% and 6.004 is at 40%. In comparison, 6.005 response-rate is at 24%.
I hope you will help remedy this situation. Please go to http://web.mit.edu/subjectevaluation/ before 9:00 AM tomorrow morning (in less than 24 hours) and provide your feedback.
Thanks!
6.005 Staff

README file in your Guichat project
Hi guys-As you finish your project tonight, we'd just like to request you to add a README file containing a sentence or two on how to run your client and server. This is especially important if your code isn't trivial to run.
This should only take two minutes to do. Please put your README in the root folder of your project.
Good luck!
