Hi Autonomous,

I know that sudo kids hasn't been too active of late because of landlord drama. However I taught a 3D printing class with Kids a while back, and that was quite enjoyable. Which is to say our kids programmes are not in full swing right now, but they might come back soon (because of our moving locations) , or in be in a different way. I'd be happy to spend an hour or two consulting with you on how to pitch such a pitch if that still sounds reasonable.
Thanks for thinking of us!

The "Darkplaces" gaming engine I ported to the Raspberry PI that was released last month has been quite a success with thousands of downloads and positive reviews. I am about ready to release the next version of the engine along with a batch of open source games that will run in the engine.

I was thinking that it might be a good opportunity at this point to ask for a donation. I would like to ask people to make a donation to Sudoroom (instead of me) to support ongoing community outreach efforts and in particular, to make a donation in support of the activities relating to "Sudo Kids." Also, the Raspberry PI Foundation announced last week that well over $1,000,000 in grant money is available to non-profits that support educational activities relating to teaching kids how to write software and work with technology.

If this sounds like a feasible idea for raising funds then I would need a little help in preparing a pitch to submit with the donation request that describes what Sudo Kids is about and how Sudoroom works with the community. There is also a grant proposal that could be submitted to the Raspberry PI foundation.

Here's the thread on the Raspberry PI forum:

Peace,
