Subject: Re: Sugar on a Stick - Sugar Labs
The West Side meetings are usually held at ACAA (near Bell Rd and I-17).
(with a few exceptions, such as during the summer).
ACAA is also a charter school, [where they use linux].
So, if you have been to a W. side meeting at ACAA, then you know another school
that uses linux.
just my 0.02...
