    Amping Up OLPC in NYC: Community Summit Nov 21
    http://www.olpcnews.com/countries/usa/olpc_nyc_community_summit.html

New Draft Schedule: (please hack the below schedule into
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_NYC !!)

    12:30PM - early birds organize room (133 West 46th St, 3rd Flr)

    1PM - Mike Lee - 30min - OLPC/Sugar backgrounder, DC experience & 2010
opportunities (arrive on time for our special guest!)
               Sameer Verma - 5min - San Francisco's similarly path-breaking
approach
               Caroline Meeks - 10min - Learning Goals, how Sugar supports
them, Teacher Training: http://prezi.com/cv5do02tj-0y
               Adam Holt - 5min - Community Innovation for All (perspectives
from my current 6-country OLPC/Sugar Learning journey)

    2PM - Everyone introduces themselves, their perspective/questions on
where we are after 2 years
               Everyone will be asked to vote for 1 NYC community idea they
feel will have traction over the coming 2 years

    2:40 - Three brainstorming sessions, separately around {tech, teaching,
twitteriffic etc}
               How can NYC spur local projects(s) with structured
sustainability?
               Can NYC use its place in the world to help build worldwide
action?
               Where can you connect with Specific Overseas Community? (EG.
our hosts at Church of St Mary the Virgin have strong Honduras ties, as do
several OLPC volunteers who will be in attendance!)

    3:20 -  Everyone re-congregate, explaining "on-whiteboard" your team's
Conclusions / Strategies

    4PM - Clean up - depart for drinks/dinner nearby!

We'll readjust around San Francisco's simultaneous West Cost events live as
nec, wherever Professor Sameer Verma there feels Skype/IRC uplinks fit in
around his own *awesome* and evolving daylong agenda:
