Heather, it seems like a great idea, thanks to technology there are many
tools today to facilitate actual meetings dispite the distance. Please check
on this possibility for those of use that can not make it to South Africa
(not just the wiki but streamming or...). I will be very much interested to
follow the educational track planning
