Please join our weekly Thursday public call (10AM NYC Time) with special
guest from Paris:

   Lionel Laske (https://twitter.com/lionellaske)
   President of http://olpc-france.org
   Founder of http://Sugarizer.org

He'll explain the evolution of Sugarizer -- while he guides us integrating
this for offline schools using XSCE school servers (in Ghana, Fiji, Haiti,
India, Malaysia...the list is now growing faster that any other year).  We
have not begun Sugarizer integration, but all agree now's the time, and
Lionel agrees to help us get this right.  Particularly now that XSCE school
servers are being tested on CentOS 7, offering enterprise support/updates
into 2024.

Please bring your probing questions for Lionel!

   - How compatible is Sugarizer with the wide diversity of legacy (very
   old) Android devices we discover in the developing world?
   - What specific steps should a volunteer take to improve the language
   support of Sugarizer for their own country/region/diaspora?
   - How is my Journal protected, by whom, and might a child safeguard
   their own copy using something like
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Takeout ?
   - What activities should Sugarizer most urgently embrace, to become an
   MVP?  (Minimal Viable Product aka Most Valuable Player!)
   - Truly, how can we help?  What would a "complete" Sugarizer ecosystem
   look like, in the ideal world?
   - Will Sugarzer be offered to actual Facebook users, as well as on
   passenger jets seatbacks and in self-driving cars worldwide?
   - Or is Sugarizer 100% organic, not interested in Silicon Valley's latest
   drone/balloon idolatry
   <http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03/26/technology/drones-beaming-web-access-are-in-the-stars-for-facebook.html>
   dreams to conquer the 3rd world?
   - After MIT provided $100 Bitcoins to ALL students, who crazily spent
   all the money flinging $100 laptops around the world, can we now use
   Sugarizer to mine more Bitcoin directly (neurologically) from all global
   children's brains?
   - Rumors fly the President of OLPC France forced his own children to
   sign IRB's, creating Sugarizer's untouchably beautiful UX -- hence refining
   the slick marketing of child labor we've long-overlooked, to igniting a
   movement of billions of Sugarized learneRs not just learneDs?
   - Is there a risk kids'll expose Napoleon's latest plan for France
   retake Africa-then-the-world (from China) using Sugarizer, in fact
   beginning the very Day Before Our Call?
   - Could the hidden salary + massive travel stipend of OLPC France's
   President be published by Sugar users worldwide, that Very Same Day??

*Mark your calendar carefully: that day is coming fast, Wednesday the first
day of the month, the very day before our call, and please nobody tell
China what is coming.*  The Truth is more important than the Facts, and la
Cinéma Véritée even more so, on this Je Suis Paristocratic day of
post-parody especially.  It cannot be a coincidence that Napoleon rose back
to power exactly 200 years ago, late March 1815...preparing for this very
day?  Already trembling in fear of OLPC France's Napoleonic President and
his fearrorist army of volunteers?  Super Scary Stuff, but never fear
children: we'll help you write a N.ifty S.ugar A.ctivity that disguises
your voice, as you
*Speak Truth to Power directly, the very next day after.*
Yes that very next day (April 2) we'll recover, I promise (unless his Jacobin
lieutenant <https://twitter.com/bzg2> and Korean propagandist
<https://twitter.com/fleurpellerin> counterattack ;) so keep your powder
dry, *preparing your own very best Sugarizer questions* to add to our
weekly agenda/minutes here, asking the one+only Lionel Laske live during
Thursday's call:

Best of luck surviving that 1st day of April, to all :-)  And thanks for
sending your Skype name or phone number in advance of Thursday's call!!  Or
ping backchannel #schoolserver live at that time (10AM NYC Time) on
http://webchat.freenode.net (but stick with pre-Sugarized Freedom Fries
this week, just to be safe)
