Request for Information
by Vincent Touquet 27 Oct '06

27 Oct '06

Hi, I remember that when I participated at Osdem some time ago, I met some blind people who were using a Linux system with speech synthesis. I recently met a friend who is going blind, because of a genetic condition, and I was wondering if I could put him in contact with someone in Brussels to show the possibilities of such a system. Any takers ? My friend can come to Brussels. Maybe he could come around at Fosdem ? kind regards, Vincent

Free and Open Virtual Office for all Youth Initiatives in the World
by Sven Aerts 19 Oct '06

19 Oct '06

Request co-organisation workshop / publication in your magazine / radio-tv emission Hi, How was the summer ? We think your organisation is very professional and request your help. I was wondering if you'd consider to team up with us to organize an international workshop together... 70% of the travel costs are paid back and 100% of the accomodation and food for the participants... the organisers earn some 100-200€/day+3 prep and wrap-up days... We have 3 things we're working on: - IT4YI = IT for Youth Initiatives... we programmed a set of tools that make a "Virtual Office", enabling working over the web. From the summer of 2006, all Youth Initiatives all over the World have free access to all these tools, can make websites in a couple of minutes... hosting is offered by a Polish University. Anyway... it's really cool and the project won a price by the EC and the DG 4 Education and Culture. We want your help to spread this news and learn Youth Leaders all over the Planet about this tool and push it to the United Nations: 1 open place where all youth initiatives can be mentioned and worked out, improved, ... we want to explain, give workshops on all this for the better of humanity and contribute to the creation of World Peace. - the OLPC-Initiative= One Laptop Per Child ... I guess you've heard about this. The MIT-Boston won a competition launched by Kofi Anan to make a 100 € computer. Here it is: wifi, can be powered by cranking ... open source, ....it's just great ... They are only available to governments... in orders of 1 million ... the first orders have been placed ... and will arrive by the end of 2006. Nice ... and what next? We want to kick-start with your help the Worlds first RealWorld and Virtual World Workshop with groups of youngsters from the first world and those first LOADS of youngsters from developing countries ... we have techniques to link remote villages the internet and we want to explain them, give workshops on all this for the better of humanity and contribute to the creation of World Peace. http://it4yi-wiki.skn.wsinf.edu.pl/YouthandtheOLPCinitiative - the World Youth Peace Summits - Peace Bombs ... if you like large scale yet very intense Youth Leaders workshops ... we move into area's where there is some tension and where the domino stone can fall either to peace either to war again ... most tensions have a religious sauce ... we move in with 500 Youth Leaders from all over the World and all kinds of religions to make sure there is impartiality, create such a swirling dynamic and make sure there are so many things to discover, that local people that are trapped into a war-logic just forget what's happening and, before they know it, get their focus shifted from conflict to the co-organisation of a complex international/bi-lateral project in which they could participate in a near future. We have the support of all the world religious leaders: This one is the Grandson of Nelson MANDELA ... he's teaming up with you if you want to, as we are organizing the WYPS-Africa. If you want to see more pictures, have a look at the gallery in the Virtual Office: http://yig.skn.wsinf.edu.pl/ Reading your profile we thought you' really seem like a great great inspiration, we'd like you to be the contact person for your country on those topics and we're looking forward reading you. If you decide to team up with us - which we really hope - we'd like to invite you to an online workshop to learn how to work in the Virtual Office. The WYPS-Nigeria team will be giving this course themselves to you. The course is set up in such a way you can start it anytime. To start... please go here: http://it4yi-wiki.skn.wsinf.edu.pl/ Online_Course_How_to_use_the_WYPS_VirtualOffice In name of the IT4YI and WYPS, Sven-Belgium PS Please publish in your magazines, contact us for interviews and forward.
