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

[David Bucknell <david@members.iteachnet.org>]

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.
