[ubuntu-za] Ubuntu in S.A.

[Leon Gert Marincowitz]

This is amazing! MEC Creecy in charge of Gp education is moving! This is
good news.

Perhaps there's an initiative here for Ubuntu Za to get local kids
coding/hacking etc?

They already have the hardware and awesome Ubuntu software. Now they just
need some creative guidance.

If there's interest in the community lets talk about otherwise email me of
list and we can see about doing something

Best
