Hiyas, As just the poor harrassed head of admin for SII. I ask if we can use the ubuntu-classroom area or do they need to set up a new channel for when the devs wish to hold classroom sessions. If you read the text below, you will get a better idea of SII. There are some VERY skilled programmers on there who I think would be an asset to ubuntu, instead of making a seperate classroom area, I ask that you look favourably upon this request.

It is still a young team, but their commitment to the side of AI that accessibility can gain from is in no doubt, an example being that the (still being developed) web area has <a href="http://www.thesii.org/front/" target="_blank">http://www.thesii.org/front/</a> (From our head of Dev) --> "The site's up at <a href="http://www.thesii.org/" target="_blank">http://www.thesii.org</a>, I'm working to get it Section 508 first." SII is still awaiting clearance from freenode to gain '#' status (it takes a while!) but you are always welcome on ##sii-general, AlanBell is always on there and has kindly popped the meetingology bot on for them.
