Hi Janine, Coming at your question from the user requirements side, I have one request from the deployment in Uruguay.
They want to make it easier for kids to blog. Description of the requirement is at: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Uruguay Click on the link called: Requiremientos Para XO It has surprisingly broad implications which may require new code on XO, XS or the Internet. I'm putting together a team to address that requirement. I want to make anything we develop available to all XO deployments. I also want to stay in touch with Uruguay to gather more requests from them. I think we can develop a mutually beneficial dialogue where developers learn from the users and vice versa. We'd love to have your support! If you are interested, send me an e-mail or join the list I setup on Google at: http://groups.google.com/group/uruguay-XO-coordination The success of the whole organization is more important than any one project so you should give extra weight to responses from OLPC employees (I'm a volunteer). For example, below is a request for help from the server list. It has a few specific suggestions you may want to consider. Thanks, Greg S ******** Message: 1 Date: Mon, 31 Mar 2008 17:49:35 -0400 From: "Martin Langhoff" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: [Server-devel] The road towards xs-0.3 To: server-devel <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1 Hi all, I am just settling down in my temporary "office" in Buenos Aires. Before leaving Cambridge, I cranked out some a private test build of the XS fixing #6678. Tomorrow I will finish setting up my portable build machine to crank out a few more with related fixes. Is anyone else (other than Wad I guess) actively working on XS-related bugs, are there any patches or easy fixes that I could trivially include in the 0.3 release? Any bugs that you have seen or not reported? *Now* is the time to file those unfiled bugs, vote for the unvoted bugs; show your love for XS and show your patch ;-) Where/how to do this? 3 Easy steps: 1 - Familiarise yourself with the xs-0.3 goals and general roadmap here: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/XS_Roadmap 2 - Have a read of the currently open bugs, have a look at the ones listed for xs-0.3 - if you have patches you know what to do with them! https://dev.laptop.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&; group=milestone&component=school+server&order=priority&col=id&col=summar y&col=status&col=type&col=priority 3 - Help triage the bugs! What is bug triage?
