Re: [school-discuss] Re: [seul-edu] Call for help



Roger has set up news.schoolforge.net to point to opensourceschools.org. I 
sent the following to him meaning without looking at the address, thinking I 
was responding to a list message. I wrote proposing some ideas for the 
schoolforge-seul-edu supporters and members news site. Please read, comment, 
castigate and chip in.

This would be - is great. I will do the update now.

Let me take this opportunity to ask folks who are members and - or supporters
of Schoolforge and Seul to keep in mind posting to news.schoolforge.net
whenever you've got an event or an idea or an app or a lesson plan or unit or
something relevant to fostering open source resources in education.

We'll put Les's latest apps up as the most prominent block, right? Any other
ideas would be welcomed.

Anyone with ideas about rearranging categories and content should also speak
up.

BIG Question: should I change the logo to match Schoolforge? Fine by me -- I'm
cc-ing this to Brent Simpson, who designed opensourceschools.org's look (back
when it was well-kept, that is -- last year).

thanks for the new energy, Roger.
