I live in Toronto, but I have a cottage near Peterborough. I'd be available to "mesh" in the spring (assuming spring arrives this year) and summer.

HI

I teach at Moira Secondary school in Belleville ON, I managed to persuade the school to buy 5 give 5, we'll be undertaking computer engineering projects with them in semester 2, take them 'on the road' to feeder schools and set up global connections ( I have a contact in the Solomon Islands, imagine connecting with students in developing countries using the SAME technology as Canadian students!) 

Semester 1 in September may well see software rojects being written for the XO as part of my senior computer science classes.

Possible projects include the health ones listed here  http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Health

That said we're open to ideas, possibilities are endless...
