Event ideas

  • Hacking days, software hacking: Build wiki infrastructure for OLPC projects. Specific needs: form input to Mediawiki (immediate users would be Review squads and Summer of content applicants), matchmaking aids for Summer of content that can parse wikipages and categories of which interns are interested in what companies and automatically suggest match-ups).
  • Hacking days, content hacking: Run a Jam in Taipei!
  • Open space: Hold a Review squad session and advertise for local children to come and join.
  • Brainstoring session: Come up with projects for Summer of content 2007 - also good for recruiting mentors, interns, mentor orgs.

Swag ideas

  • "make your own OLPC t-shirts" booth - fabric paint, rubber stamps in the shape of the "1" "laptop" "->" "XO" icons, and t-shirts.
