COMP6023 Assignment Spec updated

I have made minor changes to the spec that dealt with the instructions for how to get your Assignment 2 images. So it's less confusing now.

The spec is up to Version 4 now. So if you are working from an older one it might be worth a look. But there have been no substantial changes.

Students submitting as essay for Assignment 3 should register with turnitin.com
