Open Jams

An Open Jam, or OJ for short is a public meeting for people who want to get involved with the OLPC project. Each meeting should have a goal of content or code or contacts. However, the overarching goal of the project should be helping people learn in a way that will enable them to continue to be involved in the OLPC project.
