For some<BR>> other activities the existing board and the interfaces on the board<BR>> are not enough. We find Phoenix the best bet, free hardware, free<BR>> software, and growing adoption in the country. Phoenix can begin in<BR>> school and can continue to work in college labs as well. Our<BR>> objective is to create activities that middle school children can do<BR>> using phoenix and OLPC.<BR>><BR>
<FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #8db3e2">Thank you. This is very helpful</FONT><BR>> <BR>> You did not find much of DBF because that is not the way the<BR>> activities are logged on the wiki. You may check OLPC Mumbai, the<BR>> activities are written about.<BR>

What do you mean by "the<BR>> statement of OLPC India should be final", regarding taking decisions<BR>> or representing in some other fora? Can you please clarify?<BR>

<FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #b8cce4">From what I understand, OLPC India is part of the OLPC Organization (</FONT><A href="http://www.laptop.org"><FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #b8cce4">www.laptop.org</FONT></A><FONT style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: #b8cce4">) and has responsibilities for the geography.<BR>While anyone with interest in OLPC is welcome to volunteer, any official relationships, sales, coordination etc for the regions are handled by regional organizations. </FONT><BR>> -- <BR>> Nagarjuna G.<BR>> http://www.gnowledge.org/<BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> India mailing list<BR>> India@lists.laptop.org<BR>> http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/india<BR><BR></body>
