Hello  Scott

Thank you for your stimulating comment ( below) about your perception of our  recent sending   which is one link

http://openfsm.net/projects/extensionfsm2015/comex15-extensions-links-en

In this compact message , extension  is described in 5 points 

We think you people know in that list know about the "Why participate in wsf ",So  we focus on the "how to participate, when you do not have in hand a plane ticket to tunis"  

Our understanding  and experience is that there are many possibilities to "extend" the wsf spirit far from its center which is currently Tunis

 HOW to register, and HOW  to get into  the extension dynamics and How to enlarge activities in the internet  How to make contacts and be visible  .

.HOW   to get in the wsf café  etc.. - point 4 in link

See here the organizations from canada  who are registered in the wsf website so far .. yours can join, going or not to tunis  ( point 2) 

http://openfsm.net/projects/extensionfsm2015/comex15-registration2015-regions/#3

We would be quite pleased to see canadian activities in tunis  being enlarged by their organizers towards  more canadians not travelling to tunis  to stay on board  ( see item 3 in the link) 

We would be delighted to see some local activities of various type in Canada BC SK Ontario  QB etc.. announced in wsf site for before or during of after wsf days 24 28 march , and they can be enlarged  also   (see item 5 ) So far none of the 70 activities announced "out of tunis" is from canada

Our expectation is  to get in  verbal  contact on phone,  skype ,  facebook  with  who is interested by extension of wsf   in canada ,  wsf café , distant participation in tunis etc

That is why there is a participation form ( see point 1 in the link  above) 

Scott please  note that 40 people out of  the 230 participants  who have answered our invitation so far are from palestine and that might be of  specific interest for you ( point 1)

We can be  contacted   by email  sadek.efessem@gmail.com aicha;efessem@gmail.com, we can call you on the phone  ... we are not geeks 

Greetings from extension commission 

Aicha

 

Has the WSF devolved into a cyber geek gathering?I have to say, this post is difficult for ordinary mortals like me to understand the code.best wishes=
