Elizabeth Krumbach has performed an act beyond magic, for those Not Yet 
Hip to her and her partners in crime, and their astonishing 
contributions creating this most beautiful (yes, I dare say historic) 
invitation the world.

Around OLPC/Sugar/Realness' biggest ever community/volunteering event 
Oct 22-24 in San Francisco, with as many as 100 people indicating they 
might attend:

Quickie Questions squeezed in before we all get hounded with eager 
questions in coming days -- whether or not we later post a mini-FAQ like 
http://realness.org/details/ :

* What time does registration close Oct 22, 2010 at 
http://olpcsfcs2010.eventbrite.com ?  Must late registration folks pay 
cash on-site?

* Do folks think it's OK to continually/dynamically expand 
http://olpcSF.org/CommunitySummit2010/people.php with quality "biopics" 
as we're getting ongoing requests here, beyond the currently posted 18 
headliner speakers / PartySipAnts :)  One suggestion: keep welcoming our 
strongest contributors worldwide, showcasing their work and 
personalities so vividly, even if this page is becoming too long we can 
certainly break it up later in any number of ways.  And if we 
accidentally end up with a strong social network of our accomplished 
doers shaking up glocal learning, things could be worse if our world 
suddenly wakes up to one glorious such place :)

* The schedule is still coming together progressively of course, at 
http://olpcSF.org/CommunitySummit2010/schedule.php and 
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_SanFranciscoBayArea/OLPCSF_Community_Summit_2010#Possible_Topics 
-- but can we please post a "specific whole hour" each day when remote 
attendance is strongly encouraged over Skype/IRC/UStream -- as Greg 
DeKoenigsberg/Mel Chua and many others have requested?  Getting this 
specific time published early (now!?) will help everyone, whether that 
time happens to be 11AM each day, or whatever :)

* The last 4 questions (below) at the bottom of  the registration site 
are truly awesome, getting to the very *Heart* of why we're all coming.  
Can we all please make the effort to make this public/shared data 
weekly, whether tabulated or summarized in any way, so everyone can take 
advantage of the 4 weeks til game time -- viscerally seeing/connecting 
with "Hot Topics" evolving?
