Hi all, I only tried to link people (What seems to work). I don't live in Uganda but in the Netherlands (EU).
I don't have particular interest in Ugandan projects. However if some tech-help is needed I could help (over the internet): - Wifi Community networking - Unix administatration skills - XO-repairing I know from Uganda since ohn Kibuuka joined us http://opencommunitycamp.org in 2006. He is living in Kampala kind regards, Marten On Fri, 2008-06-13 at 01:43 -0700, Edward Cherlin wrote: > We have an OLPC Uganda page on the Wiki, and several projects in > Uganda that would like to get laptops.
