[Olpc-uk] Meeting Reminder and Agenda

[Khan, Faisal Sadeq]

Hi all,

Thanks for the invitation.

1)

The meeting I called last week on OLPC's IRC meeting channel did not go
ahead due to lack of interest and participants.

After speaking to Dom, we concluded that it was better to cancel the
meeting.


2)

I originally thought that one of the participants of the IRC meeting would
then feed back the results to the main face-to-face meeting as I was not in
a position to attend.


3)

If someone could look into how charity status can be gained, then that will
make finding a cheaper location that much easier.


Best wishes.

Faisal
