RSVP to holt @ laptop.org with your party size, so I can adjust the growing reservation! Most important, thanks all for investing your life's greatest skills this year in creating a foundation for Haiti's Library of Alexandria for Education, which we invite you to do starting here: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Haitian_Creole_Translation_for_Education">http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Haitian_Creole_Translation_for_Education</a> Later Carmina will preview a colorful web site to help facilitate community-organizing of quality Kreyol works to this end, in whatever form this "Peoples Library" takes. But one Book at a Time: we here are intentionally starting translation with just 1 book, and a long horizon.  That is <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://laptop.org/manual">http://laptop.org/manual</a> created by deeply dedicated OLPC/Sugar volunteers, and very soon to be translated to Kreyol for Haitian kids (aged 5 to 95) thanks to the coordination of some Heroic people in NYC's Haitian community especially.  So these exact same 5-year olds might remember their little community guide to a more creative-collaborative 21st century, if not the elders who wrote it back in 2010 -- when these kids turn 95 too.  No matter how high the oceans in that year when that next (22nd) century quickly arrives... --Adam Holt </body> </html>
