As I understood, deployments are targeted toward government-run educational institutions. Thus 10,000 units makes sense as a minimum. (There are, however, rumors of 'give many' programs where deployments of as few as 100 machines can be arranged.) The red/green/yellow designation for countries is based primarily on the expressed interest of the Ministry of Education for that country; countries which have expressed interest in deploying a "One Laptop Per Child" type educational initiative are the green ones, those with no interest or actively opposed are the red ones. The path toward green is more involved with convincing that country's Ministry of Education to adopt the project that in convincing OLPC to change their plans. > What NGOs doing work in Kenya are signed up to OLPC? I can't answer that. You might want to ask on the grassroots list. - http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/grassroots -- Steve Holton [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Olpc-open mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/olpc-open
