Hi Anish…
I did see the results from last election before this one. They were CIVS results just like this time. But, I have hunted all over, searched all sorts of old emails, and don't seem to be able to find them. They have to be out there somewhere… but where?
If someone knows… maybe they will share the info with both of us?

Iff it's not too much trouble (since this is just out of pure curiosity, and I asked privately to a couple of people), is there somewhere, where the previous SLOB election results are linked/listed. I tried searching on the wiki but there are too many links under wiki.sl.o/slob
Thanks,
Anish

Another agenda item is Google Summer of Code. I've begun our application but await community input as to whether or not we should apply.
Regarding the X-Prize, I looked into it pretty closely at the time and it was IMHO *not* a good fit for Sugar. It is a very call for participation with a goal that is at best orthogonal to our strengths.
Looking forward to the discussion on Friday.
regards.

Hi Folks!
Yes… we need to add these 2 agenda items. We have already missed out on 2 major funding competitions: the X-Prize Adult Literacy entry registration deadline was in December 2015 and the X-Prize Global Learning registration deadline was back in April 2015. While we are too late for these, other things will come along that we might be able to taylor our work toward. We just need to be sure we know about them in time to come up with a fantastic proposal!
Laura and I worked together a couple of years ago on a Stanford Venture Lab education project. Tony Anderson, Luis Galindo, and Yama Ploskonka were also on our team. Out of the 140+ teams, the results of the peer review placed our project in a tie for 4th place overall! We have folks in our group with a proven track record in devising winning proposals. Now, all we need to do is find opportunities and make sure there will be some sort of funding awarded along with all the "glory."

Hola!
No tengo problemas con los horarios, entre las 10UTC
y las 24UTC, aunque me resulta más seguro lo más tarde.
Y el 12 de febrero está bien para mi.
Saludos!

I want to thank everyone for
voting the new candidates, I also want to say
that i am happy about the election been a
success. Welcome Lionel, Sameer, Tony to sugar
labs oversight board.
About the meeting, i am not sure that i
will be able to attend because of the time,
Nigeria GMT+1. Now that i am done with my
college prep. I was thinking of a way on
reviving the users of Sugar OS in Nigeria.
Probably create a lab in Nigeria. But i can't
do that alone, so i am basically need tips on
how to create one. All i have been hearing
from sugar labs is only in South and North
America, Europe and Asia. But no Africa!!
Which is not encouraging, I have been able to
get teams to work in translating the Sugar
into natives Nigerian Languages and i hope
other countries in Africa do the same. Now
that i am out of High School i want to use
this opportunity to revive Africa if possible.
Adam Holt i think you know more people with
OLPC in Africa than I.

Thanks. I don't know

information including phone
number(s)/irc if possible and/or make
an introduction if that's best?

that we have a new SLOB team, we need
to find a regular time to meet. We are
spread across more time zones than in
the past, so it may be a bit more
