Aloha John_Re We met at LW in August first during Dr. Stanger's BOF session on gnu/linux in K12, and then again at the Linux Picnic. I mentioned then that I had seen your posts to the freesoftwarehawaii.org mailing list, and I suggested that you continue posting to it. You are reaching a good enough cross-over of enthusiasts. I apprised you that HOSEF was a non-profit entity that works to organize the community around socially entrepreneurial activities. For instance, next month we are donating a 25 station computer lab to Ma`ili Elementary as part of a collaborative project with the University of Hawaii's College of Education. You are doing good and noble work by trying so hard to organize so many people around a worthy stream of informational sessions. Keep in mind that mailing lists are, for some, a dying communication medium. As Vince mentioned, now that we don't need mailing lists to get X11 or our mice to work properly, some such as this one get less activity. I probably communicate more about FOSS through my twitter account. --scott _______________________________________________ LUAU@lists.freesoftwarehawaii.org mailing list http://lists.freesoftwarehawaii.org/listinfo.cgi/luau-freesoftwarehawaii.org
