Networking
Purpose: We want to find other groups and organizations in which we may collaborate with on any meaningful level. This includes for research, software development, general tips, etc.
Project 1: Find some contacts for our engineers to ask advice from. We could use help in "bundling" the software for the XO (packaging a bunch of coding into a .xo file). If you don't get the technical aspects, don't worry. Point is, we're looking for people who have experience making software for the XO, people who could help us in our efforts. So, lets find some possible contacts for our engineers to contact. (2/26/10)
