I would love some help with my "getting started" blog. There are many
how-tos on the wiki but they need to be tested and verified before I'll put
them on the "gettingstartedopenmoko.wordpress.com".

In a different thread we've discussed the quality of our wiki. Cleaning up
the wiki will provide me a much better starting point for the how-tos.

Hi all,

Sadly I'm out of town for much of the next few weeks - but any time after 
August 17 I'd love to catch up with Bay Area OpenMoko fans.

Lost interest?  It's so bad I've lost apathy.

Yes, I've seen that. While I'm sure that is all some of you will need, I
found myself wishing I could ask a few basic questions to someone who had
done it before.


I'm thinking of something along the lines of what you'd find in the first
few chapters of a good Nutshell/O'Reilly book.

Hi Vijay,
You may want to post on some Linux User Groups in the SF bay area (SVLUG
<http://www.svlug.org/>, SF-LUG <http://www.sf-lug.org/>, BALUG
<http://www.balug.org/>, EBLUG <http://www.eblug.org/>, NBLUG
