We (OLPC-SF) are planning a community summit! OLPC NYC is doing something similar on the 21st, and we'll do our event on the 21st as well. One on the East coast, and one on the West coast!
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_SanFranciscoBayArea/OLPCSF_Community_Summit_2009 or http://tinyurl.com/olpcsf-summit The event will be an "unconference" with a "Birds of a feather" flavor. Please use the wiki or olpcsf mailing list to propose topics, presentations, panels, etc. and make this *your* event. We usually have a problem at the meetings where the topic is too deployment-centric or too technical, and others feel left out. At this event, we'll have parallel sessions for "Education" Technology" and "Outreach" (we have three rooms) so that you can pick the ones you like and skip the ones you don't! Many of the deployment teams have also agreed to take part in one way or the other. So, start racking your brains and propose topics. Anything OLPC and sugar related goes. Curriculum, Deployment tips and tricks, School Servers, Python hackery, Moodle, Sugar on a Stick, etc. Make it sing! We'll also try to link up with the NYC event at some point and virtually cross-participate. cheers, Sameer -- Dr. Sameer Verma, Ph.D. Associate Professor, Information Systems Director, Center for Business Solutions San Francisco State University http://verma.sfsu.edu/ http://cbs.sfsu.edu/ http://is.sfsu.edu/ _______________________________________________ Olpc-open mailing list Olpc-open@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/olpc-open
