Cooper has posted an update on how the campaign is going:

Highlights include:
* we have made contact with more already-existing relays at universities,
* we now have some new relays running at universities,
* and we have made better contact with European NRENs (the national-level
university internet connectivity organizations), particularly the ones in
Switzerland, the Netherlands, and Greece.

This part is still true! No time like the present to get involved. :)
