Hi Ross --a quick follow-up on this.
As you may have been following our emails, we're aiming to issue the ASF press 
release tomorrow. How would you like to go about integrating the TEALs angle? 
Should this be something we work around for ApacheCon? Or did you have 
something else in mind?
I'm happy to take the conversation off-list whilst we sort out the details.
Thanks again,Sally

 Sally we could weave this into the diversity angle, as a reminder I intend to 
use the state of the feather to acknowledge that we have mostly failed to move 
the needle on diversity in our community, that very little works (GSoC is a 
good example of something that does work), accept we don’t have significant 
cash resources to make a big difference and therefore we have invited TEALs to 
present, organize a BOF and have a table in the expo area. TEALs help get 
people like our vast army of volunteers into high schools to help improve CS 
education. My hope is that by supporting activities like this we can have a 
small impact on the quality and breadth of CS education for those coming to us 
as contributors in later years.    What do you think? If this works for you I 
could link you to the TEALs people to help with content for a blog.    Oh, and 
I will be at ApacheCon.    Microsoft Open Technologies, Inc. A subsidiary of

Sally,    I am sure Ross and few others from ComDev will also be there at 
ApacheCon and should be able to provide details on GSoC at ASF. I will be there 
as well and also have a talk accepted on the same topic - http://sched.co/2P6f 
<http://sched.co/2P6f>     Please let me know if you would like to promote 
anything specific on GSoC, I will be happy to help and will appreciate your 
efforts.     Suresh    > On Mar 12, 2015, at 1:59 PM, Ulrich Stärk
