Overview/Reflection

(on Sunday night:) Okay, I need to finish making my webpage already, so I have a place to put non-OLPC todos as well.

To do

Connections

• Adam Hyde from FLOSSmanuals - unexpectedly ran into each other in the subway. That was awesome. They have some spectacular translation tools that we should check out... see http://fa.flossmanuals.net/bin/xchange
• Met the people behind the OLPC In New York pilot project. They are doing amazing things, and could use support and development connections.
• Got to see fellow support-ganger Chuck face to face for the first time!

Meetings

• Sunday - Support meetings (missed this, but cleaned up notes later)
• Tuesday - visited Teaching Matters, Chuck Schwartz
• Wednesday - visited Adam Hyde
• Thursday - sleep, maybe?
• Friday - Test meetings

Projects

Stalled

• Open registration for Health Jam - Needs location confirmation. Seth?
• Testing build 697 for Peru - Testing what, and where to put what type of notes? SJ?
• Document the kiwix - Need guidance. Pascal?

Todo

• Review and comment on IMSA Service Model Research Project
• Hash out S/R test procedures with FFM
• olpczine test run (report to mburns, isforinsects)
• Grassroots and associated templates
• Off grid power

Opportunities

Notes

I'm going to try to get to know the NY hacking community somewhat this week, so there'll be a lot of momentum-building before the storm... also, I think my bronchitis may have relapsed, which may... put a dent in things.
