thanks for the reply, Nia!<br>That´s great to know.<br><br>I´m copying some of the friends i was talking about:<br><br>Diego Gianonni is an anthropolgyst and filmmaker, Diego Fernandez is a lingüist and quechua speaker and Florencia Portocarrero is a psycologist and art curator. Arturo Diaz is a software engineer and open source geek, and Sebastian Silva, i´m shure you all know already. I sent them the call for applications some weeks ago,, i hope some of them can apply....<br>
<br>Still i can think on other applicants. When is the application deadline?<br><br>I won´t be able to apply, since i´m currently busy at the implementation of the escuelab project, which is actually also working with XOs as you can read in <a href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EscueLab">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/EscueLab</a><br>
<br>But still, i´ll be very glad if we can get in touch as you or any of the Peru interns come to lima so they can come by and visit us at EscueLab! <br><br>best,<br><br>Kiko<br>R&D ATA / EscueLab<br>cel: +511 998 543 527<br>

<br>
<br><font size="2" face="Times-Roman">OLPC certainly welcomes all undergraduate
and graduate university students to apply to the internship program. If
the developers you know are enrolled in a degree program please do encourage
them to submit an application and if they have been involved with OLPC
please have them note this in their letter. This is the first year we are
offering a formal international internship program and the response has
been fantastic. Our intent is to continue this program and to build similar
ones in years to come. </font>

<p><tt><font size="2">Hi Nia,,</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size="2">good to know you´re coordinating the internship in
Peru,</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size="2">i´d like to know if it´s possible for* local developers
*to take part in the</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size="2">internships...</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size="2">i´ve been talking with a few friends who could be
very motivated to take</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size="2">part. of course they should pass the selection process,
etc.</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size="2">your peruvian counterpart in the internship programm
(DIGETE) is not really</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size="2">able to process such requests... they seem to be too
busy with the plain</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size="2">logistics, and they mean "volunteers do disturb"....</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size="2">so it would be great if local applications to the
internship program can</font></tt>
<br><tt><font size="2">take the long way through your application interface!</font></tt>
<br>
<br><tt><font size="2">it should be possible! don´t you think?</font></tt>
<br>
