This is excellent news Sameer! Much success to these pilots! <br>Been gloomy in San Jose this morning either. I'm glad you're enjoying the sun and having a productive time out there in Jamaica. <br><br>Since we're not completely ready, what I can do is print out some save the date cards or flyers with the temporary logo that Elizabeth sent me. I'll also have a sign-up sheet for e-mails for people interested in knowing more about the summit and OLPC initiatives in the Bay Area. I just don't want to lose out on the opportunity of spreading the word.<br>
<br>Have a great time and best of luck on your pilots!<br><br>Cheers,<br>Cherry<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Aug 10, 2010 at 6:42 AM, Sameer Verma <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sverma@sfsu.edu">sverma@sfsu.edu</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi Cherry,<br>
The flyers aren't done...waiting for artwork and other details.<br>
Elizabeth Krumbach would know more about the artwork, etc. I'm out of<br>
town for two weeks at Univ. of West Indies, Jamaica. We have two<br>
deployments here that just got funded, so not so much soaking in the<br>
Sun (its definitely not foggy and 50F like SF), but definitely very<br>
exciting.<br>
<br>
cheers,<br>
Sameer<br>
