[Olpc-socal] Can We Meet Sat Oct 15, 2011?

[abe kazemzadeh]

Hi Caryl,

Welcome back! I probably won't be able to make it that day.  I'll be at a
conference in Memphis, TN  and I'm planning to stay for the weekend to do
some sightseeing.  Perhaps Steven, Torre, or some of the Famli kids would be
interested.

Best,

Abe

*Can you attend a get-together on Sat Oct 15? (choose one)*

Nope--most likely not


*Would you like to bring your family, friends, or anyone else (to give an
idea of how many we might have)?  How many children?*

maybe some members of famli?


*Would you like to share something interesting you are doing with Open
Source Software in Education with all of us? (choose one)*

Definitely


*If your answer is any one of the first 3 choices... what is your project
about?*

Olpc/XO at famli



*Any suggestions for a place to meet?*
