[Noisebridge-discuss] FW: [Fwd: FW from Eva Meyers: ExCEL Request for Proposals 2009-2010]

[jim]

   monday 6:30 PM is the time the python study group 
meets upstairs; there's a conflict with at least one 
python group member (me). 
   i'd love 3:00 PM monday, though i'd sure like 
notice before 8 AM manana. 

   i've got not quite a decade teaching programming 
languages and an intro to computer architecture to 
adults and also, so i claim, have sufficient chops 
to be effective at teaching basic electronics. 
   i'd be thrilled to help someone else develop 
lessons or share teaching duties (i'm available 
during weekdays, which might be handy)....

PS: a reminder so they don't get forgotten: dr. 
jesus asked a set of very good questions. 
PPS: a suggestion: if NB comes up with a proposal 
that's fiscally insufficient in some way, consider 
making lemonade by using the project as a PR 
opportunity to solicit more funds.
