Hi Li,

Your plan looks great!  Responses inline.

Sadly we've had some last-minute issues with the panel.  Erie will not be
able to make it.  I've emailed some friends at the Sunlight Foundation
<http://sunlightfoundation.com/> to see if anyone there is able to replace
her and talk about FLOSS in government.  Will get you a complete list of
career panelists by the end of the day (and hopefully sooner).

The git activity that I linked has a sample project, as does this version
of the activity:
https://openhatch.org/wiki/Open_Source_Comes_to_Campus/Curriculum/Directory

We will also have some curated tasks for people to work on.  I will also
pass those along by the end of the day, and you can take a quick look and
decide whether you want to include them during projects time.
