That's incredible. Since WM-KE isn't yet registered and we don't have any letterhead, I could also request a letter from Wikimedia Foundation, elaborating what we're going to do. Is there a possibility that the Ministry could fund us? When is the next meeting? If I'm available, I'll come. Thanks;-)

Hi guys,
The meeting over at MoE went well, in fact, I met with the ICT integration team from the Ministry. They were rushing for another meeting so we didn't talk much but they are really interested in this. They have the information we require and suggested we have another meeting for further discussions.
We are to come up with the following before our next meet-up: A list of what we need from them to make this possibleFunding sources for the projectImplementation planProject scope (is it nation wide, within Nairobi etc)From here, they'll be able to provide us with intro letters for schools we choose to visit. They didn't mention this but I think they can assist in implementation.
So give me your thoughts and I'll come up with a doc to present to them next time we meet.
ps: one or two guys can accompany me next time, any volunteers?
Cheers! Alex!

Hi guys,
I was to get a list of public schools with computer labs from the ict board. I spoke to them and I was directed to the Ministry of Education. I will be meeting with an official of the ministry tomorrow to discuss this further.
The official I'm going to meet also hinted that we require permission from thd ministry to instal the offline wiki in public schools. So I'll update you tomorrow on what we'll have discussed.
Cheers
Alex
