<pre wrap="">Thanks Carmina & the Haitian Americans in NYC who made today one of the
more meaningful of my life. We'll meet again all-day Saturday Feb 6
downtown NYC, tracking Crisis Camp logistics here as usual:

4) 10 awesome Childrens' Books Hans Marshalleck is beginning to gather
for very young children. Related: his very own XO Laptop Coloring Book
his church group may professionally print. Geraldine Zephirin is
contacting publishers for content donations and should expand her net
further. Please all help them find the very best kids' stories /
E-books: age-appropriate & legal to translate/distribute. Start with
2nd/3rd grade reading level (Age 7-8?) if possible. Polish the
translations. We Can Help You convert these to .EPUB (E-book) format.
Thanks Hans for keeping us up-to-date on NYC translation party and
training sessions planning.
5) Roald Dahl's famous kids books might be specially openly-licensable
for Creole translation given his daughter runs <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://PIH.org">http://PIH.org</a>
Allison Bland: can you investigate?

An OLPC/Sugar software Activity will be built for kids in Haiti who do
not have Internet, as soon as the quality+quantity of these article
reaches a high standard, just like this great Spanish version with
"30,000" Wikipedia articles used in Peru:

<pre wrap="">Hello,
I created a group within The New Haiti Project community.
I hope you'll consider joining it.
The direct address is:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://newhaitiproject.ning.com/group/onelaptopperchildwaveplaceproject">http://newhaitiproject.ning.com/group/onelaptopperchildwaveplaceproject</a>
I got a nice conversation going with the multilinguals/translators group:
2 of their members have already joined ours
and are willing to help.
Marilyn is doing a terrific job letting people know about this initiative.
Hans do you think we could get a logo created from the Ning group?
That would be awesome!
Let me know
Let's keep the momentum going!
Thanks and God Bless!
Carmina
