I see, I havent understood what the remote are is. So if it is about
developing countries with low internet access and English as a second
language. No, I dont have any experience with that. The major problem would
be that internet access, but in the case there will be a motivation/interest
in editing in local language you may offer computers to edit wikipedia
offline.

Laura, by remote do you mean rural developed

This would be developing, remote are. The Marshall Islands are one place
we're going. Guam is probably the most developed place. (If we have the
time and budget, Saipan might be there but no confirmation on that yet.)
We're dealing with probably one or two computer labs at a college with
additional computers in the libraries and no assumption that most students
have computers at home. We're also probably dealing with English as a second
language learners. (Though this is not always the case.) I think I've seen
somewhere people discussing doing similar outreach related to "One Laptop
Per Child" that might be applicable.
