[Olpc-open] Mesh News Update

Mesh News is an entry on the Knight News Challenge, which has received a
request for a full proposal. As of 12:30pm EST on 11-20, the 2000 entries
have been narrowed down to around 350, and Mesh news is in 8th place in
terms of overall number of views, and dropped from 3rd to 5th place in terms
of "ratings". If it does make it past the full proposal stage to the "final
50", and then to the "final 20", I think it could help a few kids out in
various parts, provide a bit of employment, and help to get some additional
publicity for OLPC.

I invite anyone who is supportive to go to http://www.tinyurl.com/meshnews,
click on the sign in to comment link underneath the title, register, and
then click on the rightmost orange star as you like.

The # of views / ratings don't determine acceptance, and are quite subject
to manipulation (including intentional down-rating), but sincere objective
ratings don't hurt, and a few extra clicks wouldn't hurt either.

Go G1G1!!!
