                                    others

      Alex is bringing a small group of people from OSU to talk
      with us about the Open Source Education Lab, the Oregon State
      Linux Users Group, and the Open Source Lab.  As many of
      you know they have a lot of cool projects going on.
      The Open Source Lab at OSU is nationally recognized and is
      home to a number of major Open Source projects.  The 
      Open Source Education Lab and the Oregon State Linux Users Group
      are also neat and provide ways of getting undergraduates 
      involved with OpenSource software.

      One of the people coming will be Mike Burns who is going to do a
      little demo of the One Laptop Per Child dev motherboard that he has.
