There actually is an 'education' day beforehand where exhibitors can get in front of a massive school audience.
I think aligning with any other volunteer groups would be fab too - students for free culture? EFF and creative commons will probably have tables set up there. Being close by would make a lot of sense. Wish I could commit some more resources, but I can say that this time next year we should be in a better position to have people and stuff to share. That being said, I could probably provide a few more bags of buttons etc. -- Jay Walsh Head of Communications WikimediaFoundation.org +1 (415) 839 6885 x 609 On Mar 18, 2009, at 11:42 AM, Samuel Klein wrote: > wait, wait -- could you import a busload of children from the rural > bayosphere?
