Hi, my name is __ Nohemí DSM __ and I live __ México __. I am new to IRC and would like help getting started I learned about the Sugar on a Stick through , and am interested in joining because ___ I've heard some news of Mexico government trying to give computers to childs.... And because I'm a fan of GNU/Linux __. This is the first FOSS project I have worked on! Some of the stuff I know how to do, and would like to do or teach for Sugar on a Stick: I am a Computer engineer. I'm computer literate, background in Windows and Office, programming, hardware, some Linux. I like English, I want to learn and teach English. I am aware of how much it helped me to know a little English. I'd like to learn these things: I'd like to program in Python I'd like to design computer software to learn music, games, get fun! And a few first project ideas I had: First of all, I'd like to translate some books, articles, stories, etc. because I tried to download a book in Sugar and there is only in English ?! I would love to make friends over the internet :) When I'm not working on Sugar on a Stick, I am __working __ at consulting office. I am wondering about _why there is so little information in Spanish about Sugar,___ or, more videos on youtube, more people talking about how can computers help to educate children..... There is something on my mind for over years: RECYCLING computers. I do not know anybody in my town who is interested in giving a second life to computers, all people throw their old hardware to trash... I know about this: http://min.org.mx/ this is a group of people who recycle computer for children in a place called Oaxaca... (lots of trouble, poverty, etc). I talked by phone with the guy in charge about sending them a couple of computers from San Luis Potosí ( my town ) to Oaxaca, and he told me that is expensive to send hardware, they do no have money to do this, I do not have money either so, nothing was send. This guy also told me that I could try to replicate their activities in my city, buy I do not have that much of time, hardware or friends to do that. I'm not a social person, sometimes I'm very shy so I do not how to convince people to give me their hardware or get them interested in help another person... But I want to do something!!, Please help me get started!
