Andreas,

Sorry for the late reply... It's been postponed for the summer. So we
hold on for a bit, at least until March after the easter. The School
of Estarreja is currently (since the summer) under major changes (I
don't know how to say it in english, but they are rebuilding the
buildings) and they are having problems with space's as they had to
shutdown one of the buildings for the winter due to the works.

I have postponed it for after the easter and in March I'm going there
again. Sorry for the trouble.

Nelson.

>
>  Session #2 - Free Desktop and Productivity (50 + 50 mins)
>  - Configure and tweak GNOME/KDE;
>  - Introduction to productivity applications;
>
>  Session #3 - Collaboration & Aftermath
>  - Collaboration across Free Software;
>  - Developing skills and interacting with FOSS Communities;
>  - Aftermath (includes grabbing all the feedback we can use, small
> group session informal talk with the students).
