Yes. There is no (real) difference in the telepathy-salut you can install on your normal machine and the one on the XO. So you can talk to each-other. Joining the mesh without an XO is hard though (as afaik there are no other machines supporting 802.11s). I'm assuming the Jonathan was using a normal wireless network when he saw others online, not a mesh. If your afraid of abuse. How to differentiate your friends and other people/children on the mesh is still subject to discussion. Sjoerd -- In order to live free and happily, you must sacrifice boredom. It is not always an easy sacrifice. _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
