Hi Becky,  I've taken the liberty of forwarding your inquiry to a few other OLPC and Sugar Labs lists which are more widely subscribed.

Thank you for your interest and offers!    --Fred

OLPC Grassroots,

On behalf of Parsons The New School for Design, I'd like to introduce myself.
My name is Becky Heritage, and I am currently Faculty in the Design + Technology department at Parsons.
We are interested in contributing for the OLPC through curriculum development for the unit and its activities.
We also, have an interest in long term partnership.
In addition to the Wikis and online resources we've been absorbing, we would also like to invite a representative from an Education based initiative, to meet our department and come speak at a Consortium that we host Wednesday evenings.
Preferably, we'd appreciate perspective from someone that has deployment experience, as this is also one of our interests for contribution.
If you could provide insight to any individuals that would be interested, it would be much appreciated.

Sincerely,
Becky Heritage

Hello Becky,

This sounds lovely.  I would like to hear more about your ideas on
curriculum development, as I'm sure the library list would as well.
What unit are you talking about -- something for upcoming semesters?
For the summer?  There are a number of OLPCers in New York who might
be able to talk to your consortium; is that where you'd like input
from someone with deployment experience -- and are you hoping to have
someone come talk soon?

Regards,
Samuel
