Hi Bernie, Thanks for your email. I am waiting on the visa... but I shouldn't have any problems (I am still waiting for Cecilia to send a letter to me).
I don't have the agenda yet, I am planning to work with the team of Formadores. Yes. Bert is working on the new version of Scratch (hired by OLPC). I think it is going to be ready very soon! See you soon!
