Re: Translation Marathon
יש לי רעיון לגבי מקום כיתת לינוקס בהוד השרון. כיתת המחשבים בהוד השרון כוללת 13 עמדות בערך אני צריך לקבל אישור לעניין מבית הספר אבל נראה לי שלטובת מטרה טובה כמו תרגום תוכנות ולומדותלצרכי קוד פתוח יהיה אישור בברכה שי On 1/18/06, Orna Agmon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: On Wed, 18 Jan 2006, Marc A.

I'd like to estimate how many people are interested to participate in such an event. The question is to have some idea about the size of that event, so I can talk about budget for it. The idea is to spend the money on: 1. Place 2. Equipment (if needed). 3. Food for the volunteers (pizzas ?). Suggestions? (please keep it ordered, I saw enough flame wars in here). If you need cash to buy food, etc. for such an event you may want to check with Hamakor board.
