[wsfii-discuss] [Fwd: ] enquiry from Nigerian NGO

Mon Apr 18 08:55:37 UTC 2005

Rufus,

Since we (Sebastian and I, and to a degree Julian and Simon Crab) are
"Our friends at the wireless roadshow", we will take care of this. 
Unfortunately, as we've discussed earlier I don't think any travel grant
money will be forthcoming from our neck of the woods, mostly because we
don't have the resources to go through another round of fund-raising at
the moment.

But er are in contact with our friends at the Fantsuam Foundation, and
currently exploring the possibility of doing a workshop in West Africa
early next year.

cheers

/tomas
