Hi Julia, I added a little extra formating to your [[AsiaWorkshop]]. I hope that this is ok. If it isn't the direction you were thinking of let me know and I can revert my edits. [[User:Sethwoodworth|Seth]] 15:28, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Instead of uploading Excel spreadsheets that don't work in browsers and on XOs, you can upload MS Office docs to http://docs.google.com or http://zoho.com, where you can continue to edit them but also share the as web pages and collaboratively on them with others. -- [[User:Skierpage|Skierpage]] 03:23, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

== I changed Image: links to Media: links in your "Learning workshops" page ==

Image: is for images that are going to be directly visible in the web page (e.g. photographs).
Media: provides a direct link to the uploaded file (e.g. a powerpoint presentation).

The change lets people directly see or download the presentations, just by clicking the link.

Thank you for putting all this info up where we can find it!

==OLPC Ghana==

Hi, Julia

I need to contact OLPC Ghana, but there is no contact information on their page. We have a whole bunch of partners for them, described at [http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_Labs_Ghana Sugar Labs Ghana].

== Ed contacts in Rwanda ==
Hello Julia,

How is your summer coming? We're all waiting for good Kigali gossip :-) I just ran across this old page: [[Educational Contacts]] -- it's a few contacts from 2007, mainly from Rwanda, who I believe had expressed interest in OLPC. I don't know if you are already in touch with any of those groups, and you likely have many more local orgs to deal with now, but thought you might find it interesting. More generally, that seems like a page you might absorb into one of the other learning pages on the wiki.

Asia workshop

Hi Julia, I added a little extra formating to your AsiaWorkshop. I hope that this is ok. If it isn't the direction you were thinking of let me know and I can revert my edits. Seth 15:28, 7 August 2008 (UTC)

Seth's improved version is at Asia workshop (I repeated Seth's formatting of the original :-) ). -- Skierpage 03:23, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

OLPC Ghana

Hi, Julia

I need to contact OLPC Ghana, but there is no contact information on their page. We have a whole bunch of partners for them, described at Sugar Labs Ghana.

Ed contacts in Rwanda

Hello Julia,

How is your summer coming? We're all waiting for good Kigali gossip :-) I just ran across this old page: Educational Contacts -- it's a few contacts from 2007, mainly from Rwanda, who I believe had expressed interest in OLPC. I don't know if you are already in touch with any of those groups, and you likely have many more local orgs to deal with now, but thought you might find it interesting. More generally, that seems like a page you might absorb into one of the other learning pages on the wiki.
