It is very impressive what you started and maintained.

In order to get the word out, we need online discussions. Please pardon
my ignorance but is Seul so close to the hip with the
schoolforge-discuss@schoolforge.net list that we couldn't place a link
into that discussion? If so I understand your concern, if not, 
beneficiaries could be chosen like OSEF, EFF or a Elementary School,
that have nothing to do with Seul,  this way there would be no
confusion.
