Hello everybody,
I didn't get a chance to meet with you all and talk about OLPC in my
last visit to Mumbai. I'm going to bug you with some more info. This
is FYI.
Some of you may be interested in this post regarding a Mumbai-centric
One Laptop Per Child group. OLPC Pune just got going last week.
http://wiki.laptop.org/go/OLPC_Pune OLPC Hyderabad is brewing...maybe
OLPC Mumbai is next? There are over 700,000 (7 lakh) GNU/Linux based
laptops in the hands of children around the world. (See google map at
http://tinyurl.com/b8oflt)
Stop and think for a few seconds...what will they do with it as they
grow up? The possibilities are incredible! Feed the revolution!!!

Hello,
All mumbai volunteers if we could meet once and start working together
it would be great .There must be a lot of work going allround but if
it goes synchronised results would be far better.
So i would request all volunteers from Mumbai to mail back to me in
this excel sheet attached I would compile it and would be surely meet
once........
