Meg, Are you more interested in students getting credit in a course or a club-type situation? Would the workshop be a one time thing or a regular meeting? My university has two different ways that we interact with the open source community. I haven’t used GNOME, but am agnostic on the program that I use. I’d be interested in more details about the workshop. I am at Christopher Newport University, and work with undergraduates and with a high school that has a programming project requirement for a few seniors. All the best, Lynn
