I can talk a bit about Sugar Labs, the Illinois Children's Low-Cost
Laptop Act, and planning for XO events at various conferences, all
things that I have a hand in. When some of my friends get their
software ready to submit as XO activities, I can give demos, but we
aren't at that point yet.

Make sure to let Chris DiBona know, and send announcements to the
BayPiggies list. Guido van Rossum attends fairly frequently.
