We can't engage into bigger Pi projects until we have proved through smaller ones. The collaboration with JCI City Plus is one such example. Demo of RPi during Corsair Hackers Reboot is another example.<br>

We can target some 'poor' regions with no access to computers (as such) and no goo access to education, and set up 'education centers'.

<br></div><div style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148)">
As discussed during previous meetups we have a collaborative project with JCI City Plus. The latter has received a donation of 30 Raspberry Pis & need help with Linux installs.<br><br>I visited them yesterday along with Jagveer Loky, Yog Ujhoodha and Nitin Bachraz. A first reconnaissance was made & we deployed Raspbian on 3 Pis. They actually received a complete Pi kit with the RPi, 8Gb SD-Card loaded with NOOBS and a Pi casing.<br>
<br>Yog & Jagveer have volunteered to produce educational content using GCompris. Nayar should be joining them if I'm not wrong (can you please confirm Nayar?).<br><br>We have another meeting in 2 weeks time where we shall discuss contents of an MoU between JCI & LUGM regarding the project and various stakeholders. Who would like to join in for the meeting? Let me know & we shall plan it accordingly.<br>
<br>Anybody else who's got ideas useful for this project, please shoot.</div><div style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148)"><br></div><div style="font-family:verdana,sans-serif;color:rgb(11,83,148)">
