| MSDNAA / ELMS Unavailable : | 16-03-2010 |
The Microsoft Developer Network - Academic Alliance (MSDNAA aka "ELMS") software repository the School provides to its students at http://www.scm.uws.edu.au/msdnaa is currently experiencing problems. Students who registered for a SCM account after Autumn Semester 2009 will mostly likely find that they cannot log into ELMS. The School's technical staff are working on this problem, and hope to have a replacement system up by the end of the week (the switch over to the new system will mean that ELMS will be down for ALL users at some point - please read the Message of the Day for further updates).
