Hi Mike,
you really brought up an interesting issue: learning and developing by interent! Even if we suppose for a moment that fr m a technical point of view this beekeeping project resulted somewhat primitive (and we only suppose), there is still a ig advantage: they did it themselves! That means that before they even began to develop the project, they developed lear ing, developing, planning and other skills. Which development program could be more complete than this? Your proposal is a great base upon which we have to build.
