[IAEP] (fwd) Open Source Schools Think Tank [March, in the UK]

[Maria Droujkova]

Interesting you should mention this just now, Sascha. After yesterday's
meeting, am working on the community page for the Math 2.0 Interest Group at
the moment. I can get a picture and a description from the site. What I need
from the Sugar community members:

Names of contact people: leaders and other community members responsible
for, or habitually responding to, communications from the outside

Keywords or tags describing the project's relationships with math.

Maybe a few active people can respond to this email.

Cheers,
Maria Droujkova

Make math your own, to make your own math.
