Thanks everyone for putting together the biggest OLPC/Sugar/Realness 
global gathering ever, with so many people trucking away for years on 
all continents, actually meeting at last!!!

Remember this is a grassroots community-run event, with a 
lowercase/uncapitalized budget, so if you want one of our Limited 
Edition 100 Red T-shirts going to press today (famously illustrated 
below by Elizabeth Barndollar & Mike Lee!) you'll need to _*register 
soon (at http://olpcsfcs2010.eventbrite.com ) as our unique shirts *Will 
Sell Out* before the event begins :)*_
