I was looking for you, people: had again my AROS booth in stand 16, next to Gentoo and in front to HP; pity had to get out sooner due to family problems, but where were you located?

 Hi all,
 
 Reminder that we have a SGVLUG meeting next Thursday at
 Burger 
 Continental. It's the first one after SCALE, so we will have
 a lot to 
 talk about.? I don't know if anyone has leftover swag from
 SCALE.? I 
 think I have a lot of penguins to give away.? The meeting
 starts at 7pm as usual, but our presenters will not be 
 available till 8pm.? It would be nice if we can make sure
 that Burger 
 Continental stays open a little later than usual next
 Thursday.?? 
 
 
 The March and April meetings are related to the One Laptop
 Per Child project and mention the Internet in a Box
 project.? These are all worthwhile projects and they could
 use more volunteers.? Please promote these meetings to
 anyone that you think would be interested.
 
 The information is on Meetup and on the SGVLUG website
 (sgvlug.org).

 TOPIC: Unleashing Kids and Teachers in Haiti
 DATE: Thursday, March 8th, 8pm
 SPEAKERS: Curt Thompson and James Murdza
 ABSTRACT: 
 
 Curt Thompson and James Murdza, both recently back from
 trips to 
 Haiti, will talk about the evolution of the One Laptop per
 Child Project into Unleash Kids, their successes and
 failures working with schools, 
 establishing a lasting infrastructure, and the technology
 behind it all.
 
 Some of the projects they will talk about are a mission
 school using 
 OLPC laptops and a school server providing internet
 caching/filtering 
 servers, a remote off-the-grid school using only solar power
 to charge 
 ten laptops, an orphanage with twenty computers and
 miniature solar 
 panels, and several schools using Internet-in-a-Box, an
 offline source 
 of Wikipedia, Khan Academy, and Open Street Map.
