Indeed! And overwhelmed alreday ;-)

I just got here yesterday afternoon and now getting acquainted with
the OLPC team here, fantastic so far, and with where things are at. I
am planning to do a writeup of the draft roadmap and open it up for
discussion, and a phone conference is a great idea.

The tricky bit is the "when". I only got a couple of hs yesterday -
need more time soak up information and come up with something.

Your notes (that I snipped here) are excellent -- knowing what your
perspectives and needs are is key for my at this moment. Thanks!

The format is tricky, I tend to favour a voice + irc + some form of
whiteboard, even if basic. IRC means we can coordinate speaking turns,
do quick votes, pass around urls, quick notes that don't warrant
interruptions, etc.

cheers,
