We got a no on submitting a video. :( So we need 10 slides and a 1 minute vocal. I have a crazy idea. For the PPT you can submit a pdf. What do you guys think about submitting the Cartoon Web Page. http://www.sugarlabs.org/index.php?template=page&page=learners
It has 13 panels but its a darn good description of Sugar on a Stick and it would certainly make us look different. The alternative is picking 10 slides from Caryl's slide show.
