Thanks, Jenny! :)
Here are the notes:
=== Communications & Events ===
[...]
* hilary - (passes out (one-laptop-per-child) OLPC laptops) - Open Hack
2018 at SF State University last weekend in April 27-29
** Professor Sameer Verma at SFSU - Jenny and Marc presented Sudomesh to
his class on Networking 4 years ago
** OLPC usually holds an annual Community Summit, but this year we are
going to piggy back off of Opendata Hackathon wiith an "open education"
part. Example project -- we want to create a library for OLPCs to connect
to and we need help with it. The OLPCs also mesh with each other even if
there's no internet, but no one has been able to do it very successfully.
There are two ways to be involved. (1) sponsor a project for someone else
to work on or (2) work on a project that someone already has.
** starts on friday night - sponsors of projects will have posterboards
around the room. can see what people are being asked to do. Next morning,
people form teams to work on the projects. Sunday afternoon, present the
solutions. not exclusively OLPC projects, but Hilary and OLPC-SF <
www.olpcsf.org> will be there with OLPC projects for people to work on.
** learned at a tech teacher conference that 5 million families in the US
do not have internet access at home. encourage the folks at peoples open to
think about and focus on bringing internet access to those families w/o
internet in oakland and the bay area.
* jorrit - would like to figure out how to connect to communities that do
not have internet access
** a workshop before, or a workshop after?
*** hilary: probably churches would be a good way to connect
*** jenny: lots of great orgs in that area where hilary had a church lead
(Fruitvale) - native health center, sol/lol, eastside arts alliance
* hilary - even if it's not a specific action, would be good to have a
consciousness in mind, so that when we have choices, we choose wisely
* jorrit - wondering about next steps/who can move in this direction w/
action
