Is it alive?

[Kim Rose]

Hi, Squeakers -

We are alive, just been really busy getting ready for "back to 
school", etc. as I am sure all of you have been.    I have been 
wanting to write a "Back to School"/Fall message to the group but my 
time has been too short.

Alan [Kay] and I are currently in Japan at the invitation of Kyoto 
University and others.  You may be interested in learning that the 
Kyoto City Schools are starting something they are initially calling 
the "Alan Kay Project" next spring and will pilot the use of Squeak 
in 6 Kyoto schools; 2 Elementary, 2 Middle Schools and 2 High 
schools.  We are here to show some possibilities and discuss the 
foundation(s) for this new project.

I hope your Fall is off to a good start.

Please let us know if/how you are using Squeak with kids, other 
teachers, etc., etc. We'd love to see examples, hear about 
experiences, etc.

best,
Kim
