There is some useful "about this document" info near the end:
> The motivation to try such a project came through teaching a course called Math E 320 at the Harvard extension school. This math-multi-disciplinary course is part of the “math for teaching program”, and tries to map out the major parts of mathematics and visit some selected placed on 12 continents. [...] A goal of this project is also to get back up to speed up to the level of a first year grad student (one forgets a lot of things over the years) and maybe pass the quals (with some luck). via http://people.math.harvard.edu/~knill/graphgeometry/papers/f...
