Dear All,
I've received an open invitation for all of us to meet with Nick
Negroponte and listen to his presentation on the 100$ notebook. This
will take place next Sunday, April 16th, from 17:00 to 19:00 at the JW
Mariott.
---original-announcement----------------------------------------------
As you may know, Nick Negroponte from MIT is driving the 100$ laptop
initiative worldwide. He will be in Egypt with some member teams from
the initiative, and would like to meet with the open source community in
Egypt, since the initiative strongly depends on Linux and open source
applications.
I proposed to him to hold the meeting at 5:00 in JW Marriott[...].
I called EITESAL and they expressed interest to host the event at the JW
MAriott, including some refreshments.
