This is the Glasgow home page for the Pegasus Project. At the moment it is still being developed and hence has only a few links. The main project pages can be found here.
Now download the Glasgow Nemesis packages.
The status of the departments ATM infrastructure can be found here. This isnt a very sensible place for it, but its better than nothing right now, and it is modifyable by all the Pegasus group.
