Sounds cool. I'm really interested in Squeak at the moment. Here's the
non-edit link for that page:

Should we go ahead and add this to the schedule? The next spot seems to be
7PM Sat.

I added the following to the BarCAMP page at

http://barcampchicago.com/index.php?action=edit&wiki=ProjectsPage

There's a lot of interest in community development of not just
interactive but programmable educational media (see the edupython and
chipy lists). The idea is to have a set of shared programmable widgets
and a shared environment in which to get them to interact. This could
be used to teach programming or other quantitative topics.
Inspirations include Hypercard, Logo, Squeak and Croquet; it would be
nice to get something like this included in edubuntu.
