Plenty. :) Glad you've been having fun with your XOs, James!<br>
<br>
There have been motions towards several pilots (Charles, Chief Mike,<br>
Rowen/Tim, updates?)<br>
<br>
It also looks like I'll be interning at the main OLPC office in Boston<br>
next month working on a grassroots support infrastructure to help groups<br>
like the ones springing up here in the Philippines get the ball rolling<br>
(we've been extremely ad-hoc and unofficial up 'till now), so I'd be<br>
tremendously interested in what kind of resources/help/contacts/support<br>
you folks would like, and why. so we can hopefully put them in place.<br>

Hi-<br>
<br>
At long last, we're making the return trip to Manila! A lot has happened<br>
since last year's "OLPC Introduction" meetings.<br>
<br>
- We've seen the number of volunteers and interested parties grow from<br>
1 to at least 154<br>
- Non-profit organizations have been involved at various levels<br>
- We now have a demo unit in the hands of children in Kalibo ---<br>
finally!<br>
<br>
Would be great to celebrate these successes and discuss relevant matters<br>
about the project.<br>
<br>
Can someone suggest a good time and venue to meet sometime between April 25<br>
to May 9? I would think that a ~2-hour meeting at a coffee shop would be<br>
most ideal.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Sandeep<br>
