Questions to be answered

1. will you use word or latex for thesis? I suggest latex but dont mind word if you use simple word.
2. all images in ppt no word images
3. references must be in bibtex as this avoids many of the pitfalls with incomplete references and you can use 100ndds of references from the cog group through our svn
