Ed - Excellent email and great job supporting that effort.  

What do you see as issues that need to be dealt with initially to ensure
that this continues?  It seems to me that there may be a lack of a
support network for larger issues.  Would it be feasible to create a
list of interested volunteers in different areas that might be willing
to work with technical staff/administration in local schools should they
need help?  A smaller group may need to coordinate and get the
information organized and out to the schools.

What are the top 5 issues on the hit list and how can we help?
