[IAEP] [support-gang] Fwd: [OLPC-SF] OLPC SF 2011 Community Summit - Poster contest

It may also be a good idea if you can tell us a few details about how the
posters are going to be printed.

That way if they use images, they can be provided to you with a reasonable
dpi setting, and we know if we should stick to solid colors/line art or if
photos will work as well.
