Salve Stefan, *! Some subvention could help to start up some projects with OpenMoko at universities - institutes likes to participate when the can grep money, e.g. from the EU.

I was not active with agnula, but I do know that they get money from the EU. This would be anouther chance to get financial help for running project. The EU money helps AGNULA e.g. to reimburse travellings costs - so AGNULA have had several meetings with this support ;) http://www.agnula.info/project/ http://www.cordis.lu or http://cordis.europa.eu gives information about the EU Research Funding - the FP7 fits great to OpenMoko: ftp://ftp.cordis.lu/pub/fp7/ict/docs/ict-wp-2007-08_en.pdf Does anybody here on the list does have - experiances with EU research fundings? - good contacts to university institutes inside the EU? - does know people from AGNULA? So maybe with some financial help we could have a pure OpenMoko confernece or hacking event somewhere in Europe? The FOSDEM was great, but a full weekend only focussing on OpenMoko, maybe with some extrem programming... would be great to start new things with OpenMoko, help to become active with OpenMoko and would be a great fun ;) When such could be supported with some fundings like AGNULA has had - that would be :))))))) Greetings, rob
