[OLPC-Philippines] OLPC - Philippines volunteer

[Ryan Onell Letada]

Hello everyone,

I think a meeting would be a great idea.

Arthur - I agree with you entirely. I think these are questions that we have
formally/informally begun to talk about through discussions amongst
ourselves. I would definitely love to get a round table discussion together
to flesh out ideas, brainstorm, and generally, begin to build a foundation
for our OLPC efforts.

Since Jerome will be available the 3rd/4th week of this month, I suggest
that we tentatively set our meeting date for the *31st of January (Saturday)
*.  This amount of time will allow us to raise questions, suggest talking
points, and thus, build an appropriate agenda for our first official
meeting. Additionally, this will allow us to recruit volunteers, educators,
programmers, and general supporters. Also, I can also try to get a
conference room in *Ateneo (Katipunan, Quezon City)*. I will try to get a
room with wifi access - so that those who are not physically present can
still join via the web.

What do you guys think?

Cheers,

Ryan Letada
