Just a reminder that the Officially Unofficial Maker Faire Africa is scheduled to take place August 14-16 in Accra, Ghana. We hope to have some people on the ground there and will be covering it here on Make: Online. If you want to keep abreast of Faire happenings, they have a blog on the MFA website. They’re also looking for donations to help make the fair happen. There’s a donation widget on the main page.
