Hi Michael, long time no see (almost exactly 12 months in fact), hope all is well with you!
I'd love to hear more about your efforts wrt an activity writing workshop at EPFL. How many people are interested in participating there? Do you think this will be a one-time thing or is it something that could somehow be established as a continuum at EPFL? When it comes to the internships I'm also interested in your plans and thoughts as this is a topic which I've repeatedly discussed with people such as OLPC's Adam Holt (in CC).
