We are hoping to be quite an active project so if you would like to help please let me know and I'll add you to the Google group. I will start to use that for most annoucements so that I don't put too much traffic onto this mailing list. <a href="http://groups.google.com/group/one2one2go---somerville-ma">http://groups.google.com/group/one2one2go---somerville-ma</a><div>

<div><br></div><div>We are trying to build on the work that has been done by Edubuntu, SETC and others and create a solution for children that is portable. To that end Ian has worked out a system to have dropbox backup and restore all the user files. We are asking for testing on this feature. Instructions on how to test are in that google doc.</div>

<br>
As some of you may know we are working on a project to provide donated<br>
computers and bootable USB sticks with Ubunutu plus a educational<br>
software to the Clarendon Hill Apartments (CHA), a public housing<br>
project in Somerville.<br>
<br>
The computer center at CHA is run by the Haitian Coalition, a<br>
nonprofit entity. The computers and this project will benefit people<br>
of all nationalities living in the project. We hope it will also train<br>
members of the local Haitian community who wish to goto refugee camps<br>
and set up computer labs.<br>
<br>
On Weds we give our first class to the Haitian Coalition volunteers, a<br>
tech savvy group of Haitians who will be supporting computer access at<br>
CHA and in Haiti.<br>
<br>
On Tuesday I want to do a dry run of the first class and test! We<br>
will meet at Sprout at 4pm and another group has the space at 7pm.<br>
<br>
If you would like to help test and develop the curriculum, bring a<br>
laptop and an empty 4GB USB stick.<br>
<br>

<br>
The class curriculum:<br>
<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/12bF3kcGJGUQpwG20MIoOzDfHxPMpz-xt_qBvEPuX32w/edit?hl=en&authkey=CJ7UyqMD" target="_blank">https://docs.google.com/document/d/12bF3kcGJGUQpwG20MIoOzDfHxPMpz-xt_qBvEPuX32w/edit?hl=en&authkey=CJ7UyqMD</a><br>
<br>
We will be needing more help in the months to come, so if you can't<br>
make this or this part isn't your cup of tea please keep us in mind.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Caroline<br>
