This is just a quick (and final) reminder that the K12 Open Minds
conference is fast approaching. See http://www.k12openminds.org for more
details - this is one of the few conferences devoted to Free and Open
Source Software in K-12 education.

There are two updates worth mentioning. First, the preliminary sessions
list is now available at http://www.k12openminds.org/sessions - check it
out and consider joining us. Both Andy Harrington and I will be talking 
about teaching Python, and Walter Bender from SugarLabs will also be 
presenting.

Second, the deadline for rooms at the conference rate of $97 a night has
been extended to Tuesday, Sept 2. After that, the room rate will
increase dramatically. So if you are planning to attend, book a room now
(see the "Hotels" link on k12openminds.org). You should be able to book
online all through the weekend.

I know that time is short, but we hope you will consider joining us in
Indy for this event.

Cheers,
Vern Ceder, K12 Open Minds Planning Committee
-- 
This time for sure!
