Portal for Engineering Discussions

This is a place for pickup discussions regarding engineering. Question and answer, imagineering, requirements analysis, specific technical problems,etc. Any discussion related to engineering is appropriate and since this page is FDL'ed may easily be ported into appropriate lessons or other places in the Wikiversity Engineering databases.

Perhaps we can generate some interest in establishing a distributed supercomputer system for Wikiversity's future projects. When not busy with our priority stuff it could help with others routine work as proposed here: http://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/Screensaver_Project
