National Aboriginal Connectivity and E-services Forum 2006

That was a great 5th forum organized by Aboriginal Canada Portal, with the contribution of ITK and several other organizations, held from March 13 to 14, 2006 at the Government Conference Center in Ottawa. It was incredibly intense: conferences, workshops, presentations, brainstorming... Those 2 days seemed like a whole working week! Anyway... we met interesting people of all over Canada. Before I left, I popped in at ITK and made a presentation of our new input method for syllabics. Still confidential. All I can write is that the prototype passed the feasibility evaluation. Stay tuned to Linguasoft.

Journalism Workshop for Aboriginal Youth

We had a new job to do for our beloved client Projets Autochtones du Québec - aka PAQ - or, if you read English ;) "Aboriginal Projects of Quebec". For several months, they gave a workshop to train young persons on journalism. Thanks to the coordination and dedication of PAQ's team, and thanks to the great interest and energy that the Youth put into this project, the result demonstrate how successful this initiative has been: a collection of outstanding articles on topics as diverse as culture, language and technology.
