I'm emailing you because you're all listed as the developers of the XO Help activity. <a href="http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4051" target="_blank">http://activities.sugarlabs.org/en-US/sugar/addon/4051</a> For the last two years, I've been running a conference that focuses on documentation and support in open source and open communities. The third Open Help Conference is this June. <a href="http://openhelpconference.com/" target="_blank">http://openhelpconference.com/</a> We regularly get contributors to projects like Mozilla, OpenStack, FreeBSD, and of course GNOME. The two-day conference portion has a heavy emphasis on open, attendee-led discussions, with only a few presentations to spark the conversation. We also host a number of teams for doc sprints for three days after the conference. Sprint attendance is not mandatory, and each team runs its own sprint. The teams do get together to share thoughts and hang out. Do you think anybody within the Sugar and OLPC communities would be interested in attending? I think it's a shame that Sugar and GNOME people don't talk more often, and I'd love to meet anyone interested in documentation. Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Shaun </div> <div> </div>-- Gonzalo Odiard </div>
