The sharing model is an attempt to show how programmers across UCLA can benefit from sharing.

1.Question - you have a technical question of some sort want to know if anyone else on campus has any ideas about it.

2.Problem - you have a technical problem of some sort that you may or may not have a solution for, but you'd like to see if anyone else on campus has done something similar before you start programming.

3.Program - you have written a program, maybe not very neatly or well-documented, but it works for your purposes. You add it
to this category IF you are willing to demo it.

4.Clone Program - someone else has seen your demo, wants to use or adapt it, and works with you (or interviews you) to create docs and remove any passwords or private info. At this point the code might need a lot of work to be used elsewhere, but it's
ready if someone wants to try.

5.Generic Program - you, or someone else, makes the program generic so it is more easily installed and used in other parts of UCLA.

6.Sharable Service - you, or someone else, turns this program into a service available to all programmers on campus. The source code might not be released in this case. A major example is ISIS.
