engagement event. &nbsp;In stead of talks, let have work shops and work<br>
sessions were we focus on engaging the community. &nbsp;Then, we will be<br>
freshed enough to listen or participate in OLPC talks that pertain to<br>
us.<br>
<br>
I can help you through the Sugar Labs stuff. &nbsp;Paul Frields, of Fedora<br>
Fame, will be the best resource on how to run a successful event.<br>

<div class="Ih2E3d"><br>
&gt; As for a mechanism for distribution, I propose the following. 50% of the<br>
&gt; money would be divided equally between applicants, and 50% would be divided<br>
&gt; proportional to any remaining travel costs. We can also ask people for whom<br>
&gt; it is not the single primary reason for the trip to please take only half of<br>
&gt; the money. I think that anybody who&#39;s going to come to Boston specifically<br>
&gt; to attend XOCamp, from more than 500 miles away, should be funded, whether<br>
&gt; or not they are signed up as speakers. I don&#39;t see enough benefit in trying<br>
&gt; to divide people by merit or need for it to be worth the drama. (And I say<br>
&gt; this as an applicant who&#39;s about average in most regards; I can&#39;t even think<br>
&gt; of any plausible proposal that would benefit me specifically).<br>
&gt;<br>
&gt; Cheers,<br>
