"new telematic functions"--what does "telematic" mean? Can we use a more ordinary word? --Larry Sanger 09:58, 24 April 2007 (CDT)

This seems to be the name of an Italian project. Given that this is an English language site, is the term 'Piazza Telematica' used outside of Italy and more importantly outside of Italian language? Derek Harkness 23:40, 27 April 2007 (CDT)
